The varying concepts of organizational development are relevant to everything done administratively in educational practice. Organizational development centers on the concepts of schools as social organization, and like all other social systems, schools have structure, power, values, assumptions, conflicts, ongoing changes, and issues that exert strong influences on human behavior.

The interplay between the organizational, human, and social environments combines to influence relationships, roles, attitudes, and program outcomes.
