Participatory Learning

Janet

How can an individual bring change to her organization?

Appreciative Inquiry, would use the power of stories to provoke change.

Research into AI has indicated that the process works best when the use of stories generates the following two outcomes.

  • New knowledge is created [two places on the greenboard]
  • A generative metaphor emerges

The following principles guide the story-telling process:

  • The constructionist principle:..Organizations are socially co-constructed realities; therefore, articulate desirable collective futures.

"The people in our organization are of one mind. We work together to introduce any change that enables us to better accomplish our goals.

Marie-Christine

  • The poetic principle:.............We create our organization in our daily stories; therefore, use words that energize and inspire people.

"We have moved great mountains. We can put an entirely new sun in the sky."

  • The anticipatory principle:.....The collective image of the future guides us; therefore, artfully create positive images.

"Our goal in five years: 'We are the world's leaders in innovative use of technology in support of social goals.'"

Cleo

  • The positive principle:...........Craft the unconditional positive question to generate momentum and sustainable change.

"We have all experienced times when change produced positive outcomes welcomed by all. Think of such an experience in which you were personally energized by what was going one. Tell us what happened. What was it like? What part did you play?"

  • The principle of simultaneity:..The first question is fateful; change begins the second the system begins to engage in inquiry.

"We have all experienced times when an individual brought empowering change perhaps to our organization, to our class, to our family or to some other system that surrounded us. Remembering such a time, your peak experience, when you were personally involved, when you or someone else brought life-giving change to your collectivity, tell the story of what happened. What were the circumstances surrounding this event. Where and when did this take place? Who was involved? What role did you play? What role did others play?"

Philip

Cleo has just stated the first fateful question of an Appreciative Inquiry. We need everyone's help to complete our quest for new knowledge. Everyone has a role to play. We need one person to enter the fish-bowl and tell their peak-experience story. They should sit in this chair. Eveyone else will sit around the story-teller, whether on the floor or on chairs. [Wait for someone to come forward, otherwise volunteer one of our group].

Onen kati katiohkhwa: Now that we have gathered together as a group. Sewatahontsi:iost ken'nikarihwesen: Listen carefully to this small matter.

We give a greetings and acknowledgement to this story-teller by listening carefully, with every fibre of our body to the story that is about to be told, noticing not only the words, but the silences, the tone of voice, the facial expressions, the body language.

When the story is concluded, we will ask that anyone that experienced an "aha" moment, no matter how big or small, tells us about that moment. Catherine and Cleo will record these on the greenboard. Out of this new knowledge, a generative metaphor will be constructed.

Do we all agree that this is the way our minds should be?

[AI Story-telling AI protocol]:

"We have all experienced times when an individual brought empowering change perhaps to our organization, to our class, to our family or to some other system that surrounded us. Remembering such a time, your peak experience, when you were personally involved, when you or someone else brought life-giving change to your collectivity, tell the story of what happened. What were the circumstances surrounding this event. Where and when did this take place? Who was involved? What role did you play? What role did others play?"

[Supplementary questions as might be required]

"What led up to this event?"

"How were you personally affected?"

"Having lived through this experience, is there anything you would do different if you had to repeat this experience?"

"Is there anything else you wanted to add?"
