Organizational development is the planned process of change - with the intent of becoming more effective in achieving the goals and mission of the organization.  Organizational development focuses on the structures, systems, and processes within an organization, while recognizing that each of these is connected to the people who do the work.

Ways to adapt to a changing environment

In order to deal with the changing environments in which they exist, organizations and the people who work in them must align and focus their efforts, strengthen their communication, articulate and measure their results, and collaborate in decision-making and action.  They must work together to identify a shared vision, values, and goals.  They must explore what it takes to build an effective team.  They must develop performance management strategies that meet the specific needs of their work environment.
