Dear readers,
We’ve decided to continue investing in creating the OrgDev newsletter and offering it for free and continue offering the For Better Orgs tools (canvases, guides, models and maps) at very accessible prices.
That’s why we’re introducing the For Better Orgs: Mega Pack, with all the tools that we've created, published and been using from 2018 till now. See details below, enjoy discovering and using the tools 🌿
Starting with OD92, we’re going to share constantly a mix of visual explainers of useful Strategy & Organization concepts, visual maps of the works of people that inspire us in these professional spaces and adjacent ones, and generally follow the principle of:
Knowledge in a visual form is more sustainable and flows better between people when shared.
Missed you all and happy to restart the newsletter,
Raluca & Bülent
