We know OD pathways contain numerous challenges for internal and external consultants. Team Management Systems can help us meet challenges, both anticipated and surprising. Let's look at Team Management Systems as our gateway to an OD process. As OD practitioners, we help form the vision and strategies to achieve a desired future state. Successful action-oriented change interventions come in many varieties.

However, interventions that do not transfer into changed behavior in the real world become wasted effort. Team Management Systems, more typically used in teamwork interventions, can also be a gateway to effective organizational change by helping organizations define what they need to accomplish, and helping individuals focus on both their preferences and actual accountabilities. Each sector of the Wheel helps us focus on both an activity that a successful team mush accomplish, along with the people who enjoy doing that activity. By doing this, the Wheel can actually model an operational system which shows how energy is used. One of the definitions of energy is the capacity to produce and to perform work.
