Is this course right for me?

Target Audience: All staff

This full day introductory workshop will focus on the principles of Appreciative Inquiry.

Appreciative Inquiry (AI) is a way of looking at organisational change, which focuses on identifying and doing more of what is already working, rather than looking for problems and trying to fix them. It makes rapid strategic change possible by focusing on the core strengths of an organisation and then using those strengths to reshape the future.

AI is a participative learning process to identify and spread best practice. It is also a way of managing and working that encourages trust, reduces defensiveness and suspicion, and helps to establish strong working relationships quickly.
