Benefits of Organizational Development

We provide two major areas of service - learning opportunities (expanded and innovative "training" opportunities) and organizational development (OD) services.

Organizational development and training are often seen as "soft" skills or services with outcomes that are hard to measure. Yet almost every employee knows when an organization is not paying adequate attention to its internal culture and systems. An increased use of OD and Learning services can provide Yale with the following benefits:

  • Increased employee satisfaction with the workplace

  • Improved working relationships between groups

  • Decreased employee turnover

  • Increased capabilities for management

  • Agents of change

  • Developmental opportunities for employees, without providing constant upward movement within Yale’s hierarchy

  • Strategic business partners
