Abstract
Focuses on women in the field of organization development (OD), their consulting practices, motivators, values, and intended directions for the future. Reviews the current state of the field – focusing on both the inherent tension in values that is endemic to the practice of OD today and the increasing presence of women doing OD. Presents the results from a recent survey of 148 contemporary women OD practitioners. Discusses intervention preferences, perceptions of primary motivators and values in the field today, and idealized motivators and values for the future of OD. Also addresses implications of these results for the field.
