Task: What is organizational development and why is it important? How is management development connected to organizational development? What are three organizational development strategies that you would recommend within an organization?
There are four levels of analysis for determining the needs that training can fulfill (Byars & Rue, 2008):
1. Individual analysis - the individual's training needs.
2. Organization analysis - the training needs of the organization.
3. Operations analysis - steps an employee must take in order to perform in the job.
4. Demographic analysis - determining where in the organization there is a need for training.
How can you incorporate these analysis in developing your training programs within a company? Is there one specific analysis that would prove to be more beneficial to you when developing your training program?
