Abstract

Values are the outcome of choice, as well as the underlying forces which influence those choices. How important are they in terms of the theory and practice of OD? Their importance over the past 30 years is demonstrated, and it is concluded that the identity of OD is dependent on the existence and application of the core values it advocates.
