Training - Introduction to appreciative inquiry
Introduction to the Appreciative Approach: the archaeology of success.
Stop focusing on what's wrong. This introductory day will radically transform your outlook: learn to identify, analyze, and amplify what's already working to breathe new energy into your teams and projects.
Educational Objectives
Understand the 5 founding principles of the Appreciative Approach and their impact on human dynamics.
Differentiate the "problem-solving" approach from the "strength-building" approach.
Conduct an "appreciative interview" to discover the "positive core" of a person or team.
Identify professional situations where this approach can be applied for maximum impact.
Added values
