In authors’ opinion, studying and searching for main features of organizational development possess a fundamental nature and is a main task of scientific research in the sphere of economics and management. According to the results of the performed research, the main attributes of the organizational development include balance, which could ensure stable work of the organization. In general, balance characterizes harmony and equation of the system as to all its compomemts; a methodological basis of the balance, as an object of scientific research, is the dialectic nature of dichotomic aspects in the developing system. The article includes practical examples of dichotomic contradictions which require a balanced approach as to preferred spheres of activity of industrial organization. With the help of the presented examples and based on the opinions of famous specialists, the authors prove that account of requirements to balance of processes and elements of the organization as a socio-economic system, allows reflecting the real situation more adequately, comparing alternative variants and making high-quality managerial decisions, reasoning and forming priorities of business activity, minimizing risks and contradictions while forming and realizing strategic and tactical goals.
