What is Organizational Development and Effectiveness?

Too often, when you hear Org Dev the first thing that comes to mind is generally a HR team – but it is so much more than that. Developing your employees positively impacts your organization by empowering them to better execute their day-to-day tasks, which not only increases customer satisfaction but also builds loyalty in your organization’s workforce and helps navigate challenges all while mitigating risk. Organizational development and effectiveness is not just about internal improvements; they are a strategically imperative. 

Organizational Effectiveness (OE) is the process and measure of a company’s ability to meet their organizational goals. Pretty simple, right? Although it’s only one word off, Organizational Development (OD) is thought of as a separate discipline from Organizational Effectiveness (OE).

Given that the definition of Org Development encompasses “helping organizations achieve greater effectiveness,” it doesn’t make much sense to separate these two items.  At Rooted, we immerse principles of both Organizational Development and Organizational Effectiveness into the same service offering, ensuring that all aspects of your organization are being cared for in the proper way.

“Organizational Development is a critical and science-based process that helps organizations build their capacity to change and achieve greater effectiveness by developing, improving, and reinforcing strategies, structures, and processes.”

(Cummings & Worley)

What is the difference between Development and Effectiveness?

The primary goal of Organizational Development, by definition, is “to help organizations achieve greater effectiveness.”

Organizational Development

is the process that helps to build an organization’s capacity to change and achieve greater effectiveness by developing, improving, and reinforcing strategies, structures, and processes. 

Organizational Effectiveness

Effectiveness is defined as ‘the power to produce a desired result.’ Similarly, Org Effectiveness is defined as the process and measurement of a company’s ability to meet their organizational goals.

The Why

What are the benefits of a sound Organizational Development strategy?

Design and deliver customized training programs such as leadership development, team collaboration, or specific technical skills relevant to the organization’s objectives.

Conduct assessments to understand the current organizational culture and provide recommendations for shaping a culture that aligns with the organization’s values and objectives.

Establish key performance metrics and design dashboards to monitor progress and measure the impact of organizational changes. This allows for ongoing evaluation and adjustment of strategies for continuous improvement.

Design, plan and implement effective future-proof leadership development programs. These programs aim to cultivate leadership skills, promote effective communication, and align leaders with the organization’s vision. 

Talent must be properly aligned with performance expectations to maximally leverage your workforce. Placing employees in roles that leverage their natural strengths increases effectiveness and decreases burnout.
