3. Introduction to Gestalt OSD • Since 1974, the Gestalt Organization & Systems Development Center has worked to seamlessly integrate Gestalt psychotherapy, organization development, and systems thinking into coherent training programs designed to support and enhance the intervention skills of organizational consultants, coaches, and other change-agents. Our training programs are world-class, and our participants and graduates come from around the globe. We believe that the true worth of our interveners is not measured by the particular set of skills or tools they possess, but rather by their ability to see themselves clearly in relation to others. Such clarity and self-mastery drives individuals to integrate organizational change knowledge and the synergy of working together to produce powerful interventions for superior results. Our programs are the original and still the best OSD training programs, led on most cases by the original founders and/or long-time faculty of the OSD programs.
