Abstract
Organizational development has been in focus of management research for decades. Recent insights focus attention on more complex explanatory phenomena. Paradoxes, such as ambidexterity and coopetition have been particularly popular lately. This paper identifies a positive, although ambiguous relationship between coopetition strategies and organization development. Next, endogenous variables are highlighted, and distinct capability to manage paradoxical relationships outlined. In conclusions a debate emerges between two stances: one purports the need to reduce tensions, while the other suggest the need to exploit them in order to foster development.
