Enhance your OD practice: become a volunteer consultant.
Want to apply OD principles, tools, strategies and techniques to real work experiences?
Ever wondered if OD consulting is your calling? Are you a passionate supporter of a non-profit group and would you like to see them benefit from some OD support?
Emerging OD practitioners can volunteer to work on organizational issues with non-profit groups in the BC Lower Mainland. Mentors (senior consultants) provide coaching and other support as you collaborate with a client on a two- to four-month long project.
While doing real work in real time,
- Gain exposure to OD principles and methodologies like Action Learning or World Cafe
- Serve as a peer coach and consultant to colleagues
- Increase your self awareness
- Understand small group process
- Develop facilitation skills
- Learn principles of influence and change
BCO clients are non-profit organizations who:
- Need outside help with workplace issues
- Lack the financial resources to hire a consultant
- Are willing to work with a junior OD consulting team under the directions of an experienced consultant
