IF YOU BELIEVE

There is nothing more practical than a good theory
&
An ounce of practice is worth more than a ton of theory.

"Being a technology leader at Microsoft, this was clearly not a course on my career path! However, my deep passion for people and curiosity about OD got me in. I was neither skeptical nor optimistic about what I will get out of this course. And being "present" and "open to learning" gave me so much more than I could have imagined. Santhosh is amazing for both content as well as his style of facilitation. I loved the flow we had for 4 days in his sessions and numerous real life case studies along with practical tips, that we discussed at length. TISS professors Dr. Vijay Kumar and Prof. Ravindran with their depth and fellow leaders made it a great experience with their perspectives and insights". I would highly encourage business leaders that are driving organisational change and that means everyone to attend this.

" Learning about OD interventions from two apex bodies in India was outstanding and a lifetime experience. After spending more than a decade in the organisation, it was so exciting to relate human behaviour with the OD models that were shared in the program. My first OD and humanistic model on creating “aura for an employee” in the organisation was hugely appreciated by my management. All thanks to the course and to the facilitators, who stimulated my mind to link psychology/humanistic approach and link it to business goals. Never learnt OD principles like this before!! And want to recommend this program to all HR heads/OD and L&D practitioners "

" This is not just a course on OD, this is an experience that opens up a galaxy of opportunities where you can make impact through OD. 4 days shall consume you in meaningful learning, healthy discussions, real life case studies, applicability at your work and most importantly partnership with some of the best minds in consulting and academic world " The course navigates from the the very basics of OD to Practitioner level and includes facets of Psychology, Management, Strategy, Models, Softwares, E-books and oceans of reading material. This is followed by 2 months of weekly webinars that keep the rigor on OD and keeps you engaged till it becomes a part of you. It's been a little over a month and my team have been enquiring about my new thought process that seem to have got born overnight. Leaving with a quote that might help you register for it now. "If you think learning is expensive, try ignorance."

" As a participant from the pioneer batch, would highly recommend for professionals looking to understand the vast world of OD from the best of practitioners ( team OD Alternatives) and Academics ( TISS professors) "

" The workshop design not only strengthened my understanding of various OD models but also provided me with tools like systems thinking and research methodology to use them effectively. The examples and the case studies, in fact the whole format is very thought provoking. The workshop does not prescribe or spoon feed you with definitive answers, it pushes and challenges you to think of many ways of application at work. It was one of the most valuable workshop I have attended in last few years. "

" I was in search of a holistic certification program in India that would give me some answers and equip me with the tools I would require to excel in the OD space. My search ended with the OD Certification program offered by ODA and TISS. The program effectively guides you in the journey of becoming an OD practitioner and helps you find your answers through a very structured curriculum. Following the true essence of OD, the program begins with a deep understanding of self, followed by understanding of group and then the system as a whole. The passion with which the ODA team conducts the program is contagious and the learning continues much beyond the stipulated 60 hours! "

" To put briefly, this course is a perfect blend of theory and practice. As somebo dy who had studied OD subjects full time for 2 years in my MBA, this program still had a 'pleasant surprise' quotient for me. Its my first year in a core OD role at my organization and this program made for an exceptionally well structured refresher. The practical experience that Santosh brings to the course lends it a very holistic character and makes for a deep learning experience. This program is a rare example of one that fittingly hits the sweet spot of academic theories, situational context coming from OD practitioners and consultative insights from different industries from ODA. "

" Being L&D Professionals, we have to partner often with consulting firms to drive OD initiatives in our respective organizations. This program is one of the best option to enhance our knowledge in OD, especially for working professionals like us. While there’s lot of reading material easily available today on the internet, it is a great advantage when you get to learn the practical aspects of OD, from well-known facilitators like Santhosh from ODA and Professors from TISS, who have practiced and implemented OD interventions across various industries. Adding to it, when you have experienced professionals from other companies as participants with you, there is an opportunity to share, learn & understand better from each other. A perfect blend!” "

" A ‘crisp’ blend indeed! Truly effective blended learning conceptualized by a fine blend of ODA and TISS! If it’s one ‘blend’ too many, it’s because that’s at the heart of the beneficial certification program – the coming together of mavericks and masterminds. Enriching! "

" Organizational development is a term used freely and casually for a plethora of initiatives and processes in the corporate world. ODC provided me with an opportunity to learn more beyond just theory, rather it introduced me to the art and science behind Organization Development and left me curious for life. "

" It would not be an exaggeration if I say it was a life changing experience for me to attend the OD Certification from TISS & ODA. All the concepts, experiences and contents discussed during workshop of 4 days followed by 10 webinars were first hand and thought provoking. "

" ODA has provided me with lifelong tools to attain set goals and their associated objections. This experience moved my focus from just transactions to initiating a deeper transformation (within systems, Organizations and People) As I continue to stride for success and reach new milestones in my career, I will always be conscientious of the requirements and processes that have been infused in me to achieve success. This program has been a life changing experience and because of expert Coaches like Sathosh Babu, I am happy to be in a position that places me “inches” in front of the competition! The program educates you on how to identify and break the habits that are not working and then focus on creating strategies and positive habits that will work moving forward. "

Why OD Course?

In today’s fast-paced, ever-changing business environment, an organisation's ability to respond is its key to survival and success. However, it is not the ‘organisation’ that chooses when, why or how to respond; it is the people within it.

Most modern L&D and HR functions are seamlessly taking on OD interventions. In practice, the boundary is beginning to blur. Now, most L&D and HR Professionals, at some point of time, need to drive OD initiatives or partner with consulting firms to drive these initiatives. Very few options are available for them to build their expertise in the field of OD. And many a times, they find it difficult to enroll themselves for long-term mid-career professional courses.

Our OD course is custom designed to help Managers, HR Professionals and L&D Specialists effectively tackle the challenges associated with developing competent workforce that is confident, productive and committed to realizing the organisational goals.

Our highly practical in-depth programme will equip you with a core understanding of what OD is all about with the support of practical OD tools and techniques. The program aims at improving your skills and providing you with greater awareness of self and group processes.

We aim to achieve this by balancing theory and practice – using your real world situations as the start point for deep learning.

A combined perspective of a long-term practicing Consulting Firm and established Academicians would add great value to the Short Certification Course that will help large number of L&D and HR professionals gain an in-breadth understanding of Organization Development.
