to commit to the central values of OD and reflect on their own practice. The most

change agent.
Strong interpersonal skills, relationship building skills and humanistic values.
Business and strategic awareness.
An understanding of human processes such as trust, dependency and ethics.
A knowledge of OD/intervention tools.
A true appreciation of the value of data and enquiry.
