global partners

co-creating
a global community

IODA has a range of partnerships with sister organisations, in order to support our purpose of ‘co-creating a global community’ of OD professionals comitted to inspiring learning and change around the world and unleashing human potential in organizations and communities.

The Organization Development Network (OD Network or ODN) is a vital learning community that develops, supports, and inspires practitioners and enhances the body of knowledge in organization and human systems development. Members of the Organization Development Network are practitioners representing a range of professional roles in a wide variety of organizations. About half the members are employed by private industry, non-profit organizations, and government agencies. The other half work as independent consultants, operating their own consulting firms and engaging in private practice, and/or teaching in academic settings.

The OD Network is the largest U.S.-based organization serving OD practitioners. While the majority of our members are from the U.S., ODN members span many countries in the world both directly and through affiliates.  IODA and OD Network have collaborated on several conferences through the years, including through the OD World Summits.in Budapest, Portland and Thailand, as co-sponsors for the annual PRO-DO Conference in Mexico, and have shared the International OD Forums at the Annual ASTD Conference.

IODA members can receive a discount on ODN membership fees and conference registrations.
