The Community of Practice

The OD Centre hosts the Community of Practice for organisational development and change management practitioners in Ghana.The Community of OD Practitioners is a membership forum for practitioners and students of organisation development, change management and advisory practice who live and/or work in Africa.

Membership is open to individuals and organisations. The overriding intent of the Community of Practice is to reinforce and expand the learning of its members through social participation with peers and colleagues. By organising joint experiences for its members, the Community of Practice would enable practitioners to make fresh meanings; and thereby increasingly contextualise the meaning and application of OD concepts as well as advisory practice principles within the African environment.

The Community of Practice offers opportunities to work and learn with international practitioners as a continuous process of connecting local initiatives and experiences with international best practices and realities. Through this contact process African practitioners would be able to participate in meaning-making and seek relevant applications of concepts and theories while expanding the frontiers of knowledge. Moreover, the Community of Practice would be a platform for integrating indigenous and tacit knowledge (IK) in OD, change management and advisory practice with prevailing theories, concepts and principles.

Programme – Synopsis on the Community Testimonies
I came into the program as a very reflective person, confronted with challenges. I needed re-direction and focus. 

At the end of the program, I feel that I am an enhanced person (sober and reflective), more sensitive and more appreciative of others.  I have become less spontaneous and more intentional about what I do – Kwami Ansre
