Dr Mee-Yan Cheung-Judge has spent 25 years helping public and private organisations with major change programmes. Her exceptional experience, working with over 300 organisations, places her in an ideal position to evaluate the status and performance of OD. Set against a growing debate among US OD academics and practitioners as to the status of the OD discipline, Mee-Yan’s masterclass will cut to the key issues and their relevance to OD in the UK.
Mee-Yan will address these issues and also explore the discipline at a ground level. What is its real status in UK organisation life? What value does it or can it add? Who are the practitioners and how can they be effectively equipped?
She will also review where OD sits structurally and which evolutionary development of OD interventions we need to pay attention to. Mee-Yan has recently been voted one of the Top 25 thinkers in the HR World by HR Magazine.
Consideration will be given to the importance of understanding the rich history and roots of OD in order to preserve its identity and create its future.
The programme is aimed at two particular types of participants:
- senior leaders who lead major changes in a whole organisation
- those in a position to help senior leaders to do just that
