摘要：The study reports findings of an investigation on the effect of emergent capability derived from an organization development (OD) program on the effect of the OD on realized performance in a National Police Service public sector reform program in Kenya. The study considered how four components of the OD process were realized from the reform program and determined the level of emergent capability that resulted from the OD components. Primary data was obtained from a sample of 294 senior officers in job groups PG5-PG11. The study finds that the level of OD realized from the reform program was rated at a moderate level and contributed to an equivalent level of emergent capability of the form of organization health. OD has a significant positive effect on the emergent capability and performance while the emergent capability has a positive effect on performance and partially mediates the effect of OD on performance. The study calls on practicing managers to consider integrating the OD process with the strategic management process from initiation to the end of the process. Future research is called upon to consider expanding both the conceptual and methodological scopes adopted in this study to enhance the generalizability of the findings.
