Appreciative Inquiry
Organisations can be thought of as living beings made up of the individuals working within it. Appreciative Inquiry has the ability to change the whole organisation by changing the people. Through positive questioning, people will be directed to move in a positive direction. Recognizing the strengths and values of what works, as opposed to what’s wrong, will transform the individuals and thus transform the organisation.
Appreciative Inquiry is a shift from looking at problems and deficiencies and instead, focusing on strengths and successes. It is a tool for organisational change and it will strengthen relationships. Who doesn’t like to share good positive stories and events? Think about it.
