Apart from broad agreements on values and principles, OD has remained a hazy field of practice owing to multiple definitions, approaches, processes, interventions and role overlap with HR. The authors believe that blurred lines between HR, OD, Training and Talent Management, have prevented the significant contribution of OD practices, principles and values from being leveraged by the practitioners in India, to the wholesome development of organizations and society at large. Therefore, this article explores multiple approaches, frameworks, roles and interventions of OD and proposes a framework of broad guidelines that could be used for mapping a practice to qualify it as OD.
