Imon Ghosh Roland Sullivan
Change will propel us beyond the speed of imagination !
HRM & OD• HRM, HRD, OD, OE, L&D, CM etc. all must converge to help the
organization change faster
• HRM has been conflicted
• One part deals with compliance (prevents loss and minimises risks)
• The other part deals with creating and sustaining culture and talent
–Both HR and OD deal with the human part of strategic and organization change
• So human spirit can flourish to increase innovative productivity
Challenges for convergence
Practical first steps– Commit to being a master of transformation to help India
– Deep understanding of what the organization needs in the area of talent and change.
– Drop the past tensions between OD and HR.
• Both must model collaboration stronger than any of the functions in the system
• Divide clearly the roles so client knows to expect very different kinds of help from each role
