In an era of rapid disruption and global uncertainty, Organisational Growth and Sustainability by Dr Rica C. Viljoen delivers a bold and timely reframing of Organisational Development and Change (ODC). Drawing from over three decades of work across multiple continents and industries, this book presents a dynamic, context-sensitive framework that integrates theory, practice, and lived experience.

With deep roots in African philosophy, systems thinking, and Spiral Dynamics, the book guides readers through:

  • The evolving role of leadership in complex systems
  • Inclusivity as both a mindset and method for culture transformation
  • Practical tools for diagnosis, design, and delivery of large-scale interventions
  • Emotional intelligence and the emergence of the “Good Enough Manager”
  • Real-world case studies in mining, healthcare, and post-merger integration
  • A smorgasbord of tested interventions across individual, team, organisational and societal domains

This is more than a book—it’s a companion for those navigating the unpredictable future of work. Whether you’re an OD strategist, HR leader, coach, or academic, this work provides an inclusive, multi-dimensional blueprint for enabling change that lasts.
