Description
Written by two of the leading experts in the field, Organization Development is a guide to the basic principles of effective organization development.
A compendium of theories, practices, diagnostics techniques and figures, it provides practical advice for identifying an organization's needs and determining the most appropriate course of action to maximize organizational capability.
