OCL Advisory Board

The OCL Advisory Board is a group of experts working in the field of organizational development and change (ODC) who lend their skills, guidance, and knowledge to the faculty in WMU’s OCL program. Members of the Advisory Board offer advice on the content and format of the OCL program and share their knowledge, critical thinking, and insight on market conditions in the field of ODC and student buying preferences, among other issues. The Board solves program problems and explores new opportunities through stimulating, robust, and high-quality conversations.

The Board meets two times per year. 

Spring: Grand Rapids at the downtown WMU facility

Fall: Kalamazoo on campus at the new student center.
