The assessment and organizational development (OD) process generally starts when a member of an organization or a unit contacts an organizational development (OD) practitioner about potential help in addressing a particular concern. In order to assess and assist the organization, some preliminary information should be gathered. During this process, the organizational development (OD) practitioner is also developing a relationship and providing credibility to the organization so that he or she will be selected to implement the assessment or intervention. This process is critical to the success of both the organization and the organizational development (OD) practitioner. For this assignment, you will select an organization, conduct an organizational development (OD) assessment, and develop a contract proposal in a 4- to 5-page report.
