Role Analysis is one of the most important techniques of OD interventions. Sometimes working together we experience conflicts over what role we are supposed to be performing on a particular team. These conflicts can be external, but often they can be internal…. And affect our effectiveness in our roles.
Before we can “fix” anything, we need to figure out, whether or not it needs to be “fixed” and what roles we play. In other words, how do we make them work for us and not against us. In this way we can adjust our circles of influence/concern to improve our personal/professional effectiveness.
