WORKSHOPS

Appreciative Inquiry
Appreciative Inquiry is the study and exploration of what gives life to human systems when they are at their best. It is an organization development methodology based on the assumption that inquiry into and dialogue about strengths, successes, values, hopes and dreams is itself transformational.

It is founded on the following set of beliefs about human nature and human organizing:

· People individually and collectively have unique gifts, skills and contributions to bring to life.

· Organizations are human social systems, sources of unlimited relational capacity, created and lived in language.

· The images we hold of the future are socially created and, once articulated, serve to guide individual and collective actions.

Through human communication (inquiry and dialogue) people can shift their attention and action away from problem analysis to lift up worthy ideals and productive possibilities for the future.
