The Organisation Development (OD) Specialist – a strategic change partner, improving organisational effectiveness.

At Inky Thinking we simply love collaborating with OD Specialists and Practitioners. Without sounding cliched they are always thinking about the bigger picture – literally.

The OD Specialist focusses on patterns within large, organisational eco-systems, looking for connections to signpost how organisations can enhance their effectiveness and performance.

They value visual communication tools they can use to enable others to make sense of their environment, including bespoke rich pictures and the visual capture of crucial conversations.

Examples of how we have partnered with OD Specialists to deliver high impact visual assets include;

  • Digitally capturing an inclusivity conference for a major UK infrastructure business.

  • Developing interactive visual experiences for NHS Do OD practitioners, to enable them to share and promote their favourite OD tools.

  • Creating the Map of OD with the Roffey Park Institute, plus the graphic recording of their annual OD conferences.

  • Facilitating workshops to home in on the desired culture for a global automotive business, and creating visual assets to enhance leadership alignment.


In fact, you could say the majority of our work is focussed on organisational effectiveness in some way, from the capture of whole system dialogue on strategy to visually enabling deep, small group interventions on values.

Are you an OD Specialist? Maybe you recognise yourself in this illustration? The Inky Thinking illustration team are ready to collaborate with you on your next organisational intervention.
