What are some key conditions to ensure dialogic OD interventions can be successful?

What will be an ideal response?


Answers may vary, but items to consider include (1) a sponsor with the authority to commandeer necessary resources and support emergent change; (2) an effective sponsor-change agent working relationship; (3) reframed problem/challenge into possibility centric, future focused issue that is personally meaningful to community members; (4) identification of the appropriate community for addressing the issue and a way to get them to come to the event(s); (5) convening events that build the relationships among community members so that readiness to engage in the change issue is heightened; (6) convening events that create and/or utilize generative images to provoke new thinking and catalyze self-generated change proposals from the community; (7) slack resources are available to support emergent changes; and (8) processes for sponsors to “track and fan” emergent changes.
