Creativity dialog map: the adaptive Organization Development Technology for positive change in the organization

Abstract

Organization Development is an imperative process for the growth of organizations. The underlying process of the OD framework and its tools and techniques are intentionally implemented for planned change towards its view of an organization's preferred direction and vision. This article presents an important process in planned change, that is, the processing of information. Convergent thinking and divergent thinking are alternative approaches to processing information. The paper presents the design of a new OD technology called "creativity dialog map". The new design CDialogMap2 is a version derived from the feedback from workshops conducted by the author in his classes.
