What does od mean in human resources?

Organizational development refers to the extensive application of behavioral science knowledge in developing, improving and strengthening the strategy, structure and process of promoting organizational effectiveness according to the plan.

Organizational development is a means to improve the enthusiasm and consciousness of all employees and an effective way to improve organizational efficiency. Organizational development has several remarkable basic characteristics:

Deep change and high value orientation;

Organizational development means that deep-seated and long-term organizational changes are needed. For example, in order to gain new competitive advantages, many enterprises plan to implement new organizational changes at the level of organizational culture, which requires the adoption of organizational development models and methods.

Organizational development is a diagnosis-improvement cycle;

The idea of organizational development is to carry out "multi-level diagnosis", "comprehensive formula", "action intervention" and "monitoring and evaluation" for enterprises, thus forming an active and healthy diagnosis-improvement cycle.

Therefore, organizational development emphasizes the combination of research and practice. A remarkable feature of organizational development is that the ideas and methods of organizational development are based on full diagnosis, cutting and practice verification.

In the vertical structure of organizational development, through the division of organizational levels, organizational goals are also divided in a ladder shape. Therefore, it is objectively required that all management levels should have a clear division of labor. The number of management levels in an organization should be determined according to the size of the organization, the activity points and the width of management. As mentioned above, generally speaking, the management level of most organizations is often divided into three levels, namely, the upper level, the middle level and the grassroots level.

(1) For the upper level, its main task is to conduct unified command and comprehensive management of the whole organization from the overall interests of the organization, and formulate some major policies for organizational goals and achieving them.

(2) The main task of the middle level is to formulate sub-objectives, formulate and select implementation plans, steps and procedures, allocate resources by various departments, coordinate activities of subordinates, evaluate organizational activities, and formulate measures to correct deviations from objectives.

(3) The main task of grass-roots units is to coordinate the work of grass-roots employees and complete various plans and tasks in accordance with the prescribed plans and procedures.

Si Long Institute of Management put forward a management hierarchy called "Anthony Structure". This structure divides operation management into three levels, namely, strategic planning level, tactical planning level and operation management level.
