Introduction to WCOD
The Worldwide Center for Organizational Development is a leader in the field of individual, team and entire enterprise development, growth and success.

We see ourselves as the experts in the creation and design of a wide spectrum of strategic and operational ‘people’ products and services including training and coaching interventions, assessments and surveys of many kinds, and the delivery of a range of world class assessment and training accreditation programs.

We also seek to disseminate information, products, processes and services that help enterprises of all types and sizes to develop and grow in the future. One range of products we use to do this is our series of Team briefing Booklets and this web site describes these products in detail.

Introduction to the Team Briefing Booklets
In an ideal world, you would use more comprehensive, detailed materials and resources before and during any formal training or development activity. However, given the fast pace of business today, this is not always possible. For this reason, the Worldwide Centre for Organizational Development has produced an extensive range of 12 page briefing booklets to provide a rapid but concise overview of 35 different topic areas to help individuals quickly grasp the key issues in each.

Each of the team briefing booklets works in a similar way. The front page outlines the topic and the back page includes an application template (usually with a form that can be used repeatedly) that helps individuals to apply the learning (via a simple outline process) in their own work situation. In the middle 10 pages, the topic is described in six stages, with text, diagrams and charts to help readers quickly appreciate the information or the points being made.

Each team-briefing booklet is deliberately written as a short summary of the topic, designed to raise individual awareness. Therefore they are written for all audiences with an interest in one of the particular subjects.
In their paper based format, all 35 team-briefing booklets are most cost effectively purchased in packs of 10. However, they can also be purchased on an individual basis.
