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 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.'"

  • 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 prepared a first fateful question and we need your participation to complete our mission.

  • 5 mins.

We will divide into five groups, each with a group leader, each assigned to a designated place.

In each group, everyone will have a role.

The group leader will facilitate.

One person will ask the question.

One person will tell the story that answers the question.

The others will listen carefully, with every fibre of their body, playing close attention to the words, changes in the tone of voice, the use of body language.

Everyone, the tellers and the listeners, will listen carefully for any "aha" moments, any new knowledge that emerges from the story.

  • 5 mins.
