Executive Summary This report deals with the case analysis of president at Datavision, Dr. Larry Campbell, who seeks help from organizational development consultant, Dave Brennan to ensure “team building” in the organization. Dave, a professional at work, is first astonished to know that a similar kind of practice to change the organizational structure was done a couple of years ago, only to draw a no result.

He arranged off- site meeting for open discussion on six major issues on Day 1 and planned to discuss corporate planning, implementation plan and execution plan for each department on Day 2. This approach helped him build open communication and team building. However Brennen’s plan and his execution strategies were fruitful for executives, they were skeptical about the next move towards change because of their prior experiences.
