Selection Criteria
The potential results of the technique Will it solve the basic problem? Does it have any additional positive outcome? Are any negative outcomes likely to occur?
The potential implementation of the technique Is the proposed technique practical? Is cost-benefit analysis in favor of implementation?
The potential acceptance of the technique Is the technique acceptable to the client system? Is the technique adequately developed and tested? Has it been communicated well to the members of
the client system?

OD interpersonal InterventionsA) Laboratory training It evolved from early group dynamics work by Kurt
Lewin and the program conducted by NTL in US Objectives
Improved insights into managerial and personal style An increased ability to assess one’s impact on others A greater awareness of the conditions that facilitate or
inhibit group functioning Increased skill in analyzing and coping with change
and ambiguous problem situations

OD interpersonal InterventionsB) Career Planning Interventions OD is aimed at increasing the integration of
individual and organizational goals People often feel caught in an “organizational
trap” because their personal goals and sense of meaning becomes lost

Team interventions
A) Role Negotiation Technique It was developed by Roger Harrison and is
directed at the work relationship among group members
In this mangers frankly discuss what they want from each others
Steps involved are as follows: Contract Setting: each member prepares a list
for each other with 3 headings Things to do more Things to do less Things to do the same

Team interventions
Issue Diagnosis: Each member writes out a master list combining the lists written by different members and this list is posted in the wall.
Role Negotiation: After discussion members decide which items they want most and sit down in pairs to negotiate, usually with a third party to negotiate
Written Role Negotiation Agreement: The outcome of the role negotiation is a set of written agreement spelling out the agreement and concessions, which each party finds satisfactory

Structural Interventions
A) MBOB) Parallel Learning StructuresC) Quality CirclesD) Quality of Work lifeE) Job Design It was proposed by Fredrick Taylor in 1911 It has challenged the scientific management
which was in favor of breaking down the job into smaller tasks in order to reduce human error
The current trend is to redesign the jobs to improve worker satisfaction and productivity

Structural Interventions
Some of the approaches to redesign the job are:
a) Job Enlargement theory: Mass production systems did not provide
workers with opportunities to socialize on the job or to satisfy their needs for achievement, self-expression, creativity, and control.
Such employee problems are absenteeism, turnover, low morale and low productivity
Job Rotation and Job Enlargement were introduced.

Structural Interventions
b) Job Enrichment Theory: Redesigning the job to improve the
motivation by permitting employees to attain increased level of responsibility and achievement
Suggestions include: Add difficult assignments to an employee’s
job while providing appropriate training Additional authority Enable an employee to become an expert
in an area

Structural Interventions
F) Sociotechnical Systems: The organization consists of 5 primary
components: Structural Subsystems: formal designs,
policies, procedures. It is set forth by the organization chart and includes division of work and authority
Technical Subsystem: techniques, equipment
Psycho-social Subsystem: social relationships and behavior pattern of members, such as norms, roles and communication

Structural Interventions
Goal Subsystems: mission, vision. Other goals could be profits, expansion, growth or survival

Survey Feedback
In globally competitive environments, organizations are seeking information about obstacles to productivity and satisfaction in the workplace.
Survey feedback is a tool that can provide this type of honest feedback to help leaders guide and direct their teams.
Survey feedback provides a participative approach and enables all members to become actively engaged in managing the work environment.
