Organisation Development Strategy
Introduction
The purpose of this paper is to seek Trust Board approval for the Organisation
Development (OD) Strategy and to discuss the membership and terms of
reference of the Organisation Development Steering Group (ODSG)
The OD Strategy
This is attached at Appendix 1
The paper provides a working definition of OD, describes the approach used
to developing the Strategy and sets out six priorities for the Trust.
OD Steering Group
The Group held its first meeting on 12 January 2012.
It discussed membership and terms of reference (attached to this paper at
Appendix 2. The Group concluded that, given the strategic nature of likely
future agenda items, two non Executive Directors should be invited to become
members of the Group.
The Group reviewed the OD strategy and agreed that the actions under 6.4 –
Achieving a cultural shift – needed to be reviewed and this would be
discussed at the next ODSG meeting.
The Group reviewed the Organising for Excellence grid to ensure that each of
the key strategies and programmes was being adequately monitored and
reported. A number of proposals or changes were made – these are
highlighted in bold italics in the table below
