**The WSA Organizational Diagnostic Model**
	What is Mesured? The Diagnostic measures three major areas (Vision, Culture and Practices, and Individual Work). These areas are broken down into nine major sub-focus areas that are further broken down into 31 action items. An ODS report identifies clear areas where action needs to be taken. Extensive research was conducted to ensure measures are focused on the human factors that truly affect organizational performance. Accurate Information For Improving the Human Side of Enterprise ODS measures identify where organizations are strong and where development work is needed. It identifies where management has executed well and where performance has been weak. When ODS scores are low, the architecture for any change initiative must be adjusted to add skills and organization development effort as part of the operational and strategic change initiative.
