Today’s workplaces are very different environments from what they were 20, or even 10 years ago.  Not only has the nature of what we do at work changed, so has the way it’s done, the way it’s managed and the way we’re remunerated.

Learning is the backbone to our business but it’s not often we also get to learn on the job!  During a recent supply chain project with a large NZ employer, we were lucky enough to gain a greater understanding of the intricacies involved in receiving, moving and exporting food product.

The way Organisational Development (OD) is initiated and deployed for any organisation is changing, and much of this evolution is down to the growing influence of human-centred design.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone that people need to be at the centre of organisational development, but up until recently the model has been more driven by those in senior management rather than the employees themselves.
