Introducing
Welcome to The OD School
We believe the best people to design your organisation are the people inside it. That’s why we created The OD School to equip leaders with the skills, tools, and confidence to design their organisation for the future.
At The OD School, we teach leaders how to apply our proven Circle Line Methodology, so they can make thoughtful design decisions that stick.
Our learning experiences are designed to be practical and actionable blending expert insights with real-world tools you can apply immediately.
Whether you’re leading a full-scale transformation or simply want to improve how your team works, The OD School gives you the skills to lead meaningful change now and in the future.
The OD School Experience:
The OD School offers three flexible learning experiences:
Self-Led Journey + Community: Learn at your own pace with access to our proven Circle Line Methodology plus a community of peers for insights, support, and shared learning.
Virtual Group Journey + Community: Learn alongside a carefully curated group of professionals from non-competitive industries.
We hand-pick participants to ensure cross-fertilisation of ideas, meaningful collaboration, and diverse perspectives.
Face-to-Face Masterclass: An immersive, high-impact experience designed for senior leaders leading major organisation design or transformation initiatives.
In every learning experience, we teach you how to embed the Circle Line Methodology into your organisation giving you the skills and confidence to lead change from within.
10 things we wish we'd known earlier in our careers about organisation design
We know that leading a redesign can be a lonely job. You're making calls that move people's work, their influence and their prospects, and there's often nobody to compare notes with.
So we wrote down the ten things we wish we'd known earlier. What changes when you change accountabilities. When to bring people in, and when to move fast.
What to protect when performance dips. How much of the design to leave for the teams who'll live in it.
Each lesson ends with a question to ask yourself. It takes ten minutes to read, and it also introduces our Circle Line method, the eight-step process we teach at The OD School.
