Appreciative Inquiry

Overview

Originally proposed by David Cooperrider and Suresh Srivastva, Appreciative Inquiry is a strengths-based approach to organizational & community-level change. Appreciative Inquiry leads groups through a change process while learning, discovering, dreaming, and designing a new future. At its root, it is a strong process for learning and discovering what an organization does best and what are the qualities of a specific group when it is functioning at its best. This is an asset-based approach to getting a collective understanding of what is already working in the community.
