These articles, published almost 10 years apart, offer different perspectives on the future of organization development. To what extent has the Worley and Feyerherm future been realized (or not) in the past 10 years? What does the Burnes & Cooke article have to say on the future of OD? How does that compare with what you read in Chapter 16? What do you see as important future trends in OD?
