520 _ahe aim of this book is to increase understanding among managers and students of management of current practices of organizational development and to suggest practical applications. Organizational development provides a methodology for increasing the effectiveness of organizations. This effectiveness implies not only higher levels of productivity but also an environment of psychological health that pays more than lip service to "the human use of human beings, ," to use Norbert Wiener's apt phrase. Although all agree to its foundation in behavioral science, organizational development consultants have differing views about the content of their field. As a result of wide experience in line management, and as both internal and external consultant to a variety of industrial organizations, I favor a cross-disciplinary approach. One cannot do justice to the practice of organizational development without combining the behavioral sciences and structural disciplines in addressing organizational problems.
