Organization Development New York

ODNY is a community for the people who shape how organizations work. We bring OD practitioners and change-makers together to exchange ideas, challenge thinking, and get better at the work that makes work, work.

What does OD mean to you?

At ODNY, there’s no single answer. We bring together workplace shapers across the NYC metro area to explore the field, challenge our thinking, and learn from one another.

A community built By Practitioners, for Practitioners

OD practitioners are often the ones creating connection, clarity, and community inside organizations.

But where do we go to find ours?

ODNY creates a space for practitioners to connect with people who understand the work, explore the questions shaping our field, and leave with new ideas that they can use.

No matter your title, industry, or specialty, if you’re helping organizations work better, there is a place for you here.

Come think with us.

Our programs are designed to get people talking, questioning, sharing, and learning from one another.

Our monthly virtual Braintrust sessions bring practitioners together for facilitated conversation, peer learning, and practical idea-sharing.

The man, named Michael, is speaking and gesturing with his hands, while the woman, named Jen, listens and smiles. There are drinks on the table, and other people are socializing in the background.

Connect beyond the Zoom box.

From happy hours and community gatherings to workshops and special events, we create opportunities to build real relationships with people doing this work alongside you.

Join our online Slack community “Third Space” to ask questions, share resources, swap ideas, and stay connected with OD practitioners between events.

Built by people who do the work.

ODNY is a community shaped by practitioners, for practitioners.

We create space to bring the real questions, challenges, and ideas that come with helping organizations work better. Not to prescribe one right answer, but to learn from each other, challenge our thinking, and sharpen how we approach the work.

Bring what you’re working through.
Bring what you’re curious about.
Bring the perspective only you can add.

Come think with us.

Let’s Think together

The future of work isn't something any one of us has to figure out alone.

ODNY is a place to explore what's changing, learn from what others are seeing, and sharpen how we approach the organizations, leaders, teams, and systems we support.

We look forward to thinking together.
