2. Hello!
Thanks for downloading this document. Here you’ll find details of our Do OD priorities for the coming years and how you can get involved. We are grateful to our Steering Group and wider OD community for the conversations that have shaped these priorities and way forward. We also have a surprise to reveal…but more on that later.
Working with our OD community is a pleasure and a privilege. We are excited to be entering this next phase of our work together, taking us to unexplored places, and some familiar spots too.

4. …and it’s time for change
We are so delighted that Do OD continues to go from strength to strength after five years. This milestone gave us an opportunity to reflect on who we were, who we are, and who we could be. With change happening everywhere, all the time, we like to challenge ourselves to change and grow too. Working with our Steering Group and colleagues from across the NHS, we have made some changes to Do OD that we are excited to reveal.
New for 2018:
Updated priority areas for our work
A refreshed definition of OD and statement of purpose for Do OD
And to top it all off, a brand new logo and visual identity for Do OD to take us into the future!

7. Do OD: Stimulating theory and practice
Organisation Development (OD) enables people to transform systems. OD is the application of behavioural science to organisational and system issues to align strategy and capability. It enhances the effectiveness of systems through interventions that enhance people’s collective capability to achieve shared goals.
Do OD is the expert resource on Organisation Development for health and care delivered by NHS Employers in partnership with the NHS Leadership Academy.
Do OD supports those developing organisations and systems to be better practitioners and make a demonstrable impact on patient care. We take a systems approach to our work, clearly demonstrating our values of curiosity, creativity, courage and co-production in all we do. We strive for OD practitioners to raise our ambition and deepen our practice.
Know OD. Be OD. Do OD.
