APPRECIATIVE INQUIRY: From a post-modern or participatory democratic perspective, Gervase R. Bushe, observed in his article "When is Appreciative Inquiry Transformational" (2005) that there are two key characteristics of AI change interventions that succeed:

Participatory Learning

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
   * 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.

   * 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 will put an entirely new sun in the sky."

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


   * The positive principle:...........Craft the unconditional positive question to generate momentum and sustainable change. 
   * The principle of simultaneity:..The first question is fateful; change begins the second the system begins to engage in inquiry.


Three questions added to the blackboard and across the room for people to write on board

  • a story of someone who created change in an organization
  • what is change
  • original question: what's important to you about change
  • alternate & suggested 3rd question by Janet:

what tactics can you do, what tools can you use to encourage or create change in an organization?

* 10 mins.

Game: Each person in class is given a maximum of 60 secs. to give their story or thoughts of the question they have contributed to on the blackboard. Janet has a 60 sec. timer & bell.

* 20 mins.
