Organizational Development Services

    Organizational Development (OD) is a relatively new and emerging tool in the management of organizational behavior.  Essentially, OD allows management to continually improve the performance of the organization by insuring that the organization is continually assessing and improving upon the infrastructure and behavioral reinforcement characteristics that enable and reinforce people to perform in the desired fashion, respectively.  Misty River Consulting can assist your effort to refine the infrastructure and behavioral reinforcement elements of the organization to continually improve the performance of effective and efficient organizational behavior that engages employees in the improvement of customer enthusiasm and process performance.

    OD is much more important in the process of affecting behavioral change than is training itself.  Competent individuals usually will not perform in the desired fashion if the organization’s infrastructure and behavioral reinforcers are not enabling and reinforcing the desired behavior.  It is much easier to create competency and sustain growth in those competencies if the OD work that enables and reinforces the performance of the behavior has been complete.

    In addition, training through modeling, on the job experience, peer pressure, etc. is much more visible and pervasive if the infrastructure and reinforcers are in place that enable and reward the desired behavior.

    Some of the infrastructure and behavioral reinforcement characteristics that Misty River Consulting's OD services can assist you with include:

    Whatever the need, Misty River Consulting can provide an integrated and effective approach to behavioral change that will enhance your organizations performance through organizational development and training, if necessary.
