ABSTRACT
OD has some definite populist stripes, and practitioners can wear them proudly, and often do so. That is, OD interveners often give voice to the underdogs in helping them speak truth to the top dogs-that is, to those in power. And this is a critical activity and clearly one that is central to the movement toward regenerative interaction and away from degenerative interaction. Early chapters provide detailed rationales for why this movement is strategic in both theory and experience, and how this movement is indispensable in inducing greater responsible freedom in organizations.
