About AZODN
The Arizona Organization Development Network (AZODN) was founded in 1999 by a dedicated group of OD professionals looking to create opportunities to learn, grow, and share together in the Phoenix area. More than 20 years later, we continue to bring these same values to life with quality programming and opportunities to network.
AZODN is a 501(c)6 nonprofit membership organization led by a volunteer Board of Directors.
From those just investigating the world of OD to those that are seasoned professionals, from the valleys to the mountains of Arizona, all are welcome here!

For our clients in the non-profit sector, frequently constrained by resource limitations, CODA provides consulting help to boards and executive directors with planning organizational change, aligning operations and strategy, board governance and team development support in order to help the organization achieve its goals.
For AZODN members, CODA offers an opportunity to “give back” to the community and share with like-minded practitioners.
Past clients include Stardust Building Supplies, Lost Our Home Shelters, Angels on Patrol, ShoeBox Ministry and RICE (Refugee and Immigrant Community Empowerment).
Our members are a diverse group of professionals who value meaningful connections, sharing powerful ideas and continued professional development.
