What according to you all is the difference between Organisation Development (OD) and Human Resources (HR). Are they similar and look to achieve the same goals or is there a difference?

Dear Tahir,
OD is something a new invention it will very much helpful nowdays the organisation in a betterway. OD concepts are different from HR. HR is a separte department for Recruiting, Staffing and maintain smooth industrial harmony. But OD is a continious process in organisation.

In my opinion OD concepts may not be entirely different form HR. Even HR helps in OD. It is a combined effort of all the personnel at all levels.

Where as Human resources is the set of individuals who make up the workforce of an organization, business sector or an economy. "Human capital" is sometimes used synonymously with human resources, although human capital typically refers to a more narrow view; i.e., the knowledge the individuals embody and can contribute to an organization. Likewise, other terms sometimes used include "manpower", "talent", "labor" or simply "people".

The professional discipline and business function that oversees an organization's human resources is called human resource management (HRM, or simply HR).

Organization Development is the Strategy used by Top Management Even HR Management tool's such as PMS, EMS is used for Organization Development Over All Put together HR is Supporting function which has Massive Part in OD....

Mr. Ramkishore has explained the definition of OD in detail. I would like to add something to define the role of HRM. Human Resource Management is concern with ATTAINING,DETAINING and RETAINING the people by way of Recruitment & selection,training & development and compensation and training. It is the shortest and richest explanation, which i have learned during my studies.

Dear Tahir
There is no single definition of "Organizational Development." If we were to break it into its parts we can discover one meaning: "Organization" has come to mean the coming together of people and resources to form a unit. "Development" in its simplest form suggests change and growth. So OD could be defined as "the practice of changing people and organizations for positive growth."
In practice, Organizational Development can take on many forms, and typical OD activities can include some of the following:
Team-building
organizational assessments
Career development
Training
e-Learning
Coaching
Innovation
Leadership development
Talent management
Change management

It is important to say that there is much debate and a number of alternative views relating to the differences between OD and HR and in many organisations, OD is combined with the HR function, with the Head of Department or Director having a dual role and title, as in “Head/ Director of OD and HR” (and vice versa) while in others, the HR department has a strategic role which implicitly but not explicitly includes OD.
