Question

how would an OD practitioner attempt to change an organization's culture? under what condition are transformational changes necessary?

Answer 1

OD practitioner helps in making changes to the organizational culture by knowing about the organization very deeply and minutely and then the practitioner observes that where the organization needs any type of improvement for earning more and grow in the market.OD practitioner makes different reports after a complete study about the organization and then he makes changes to the culture if it is necessarily required in the organization.Sometimed there is no need of making any changes in the culture then in such a case various attempts are being made to change the organization in some other aspect so that the organization can become more efficient in its workings.Culture of any organization must be able to suit the functioning of the organization.Culture is always changed when the employees working in the organization support such a change because without employees support no change in the culture can be implemented because organizations runs with the help of employees only and employees satisfaction is of very high importance. Thus, OD practitioner can apply only such changes to an organization which are supported by the employees and are helpful in creating a positive environment in the business organisation.

Transformational changes are necessary when an organization is not able to have a good working environment at the workplace and needs to change something so that there can be such an environment so that there is proper harmony at the workplace and all the activities are very well coordinated with each other.
