DESCRIPTION
Appreciative Inquiry (AI) is an approach to organizational management that accentuates on building on internal strengths to find new growth opportunities rather than focusing on weaknesses or issues to be solved. AI is based on discovering what works, what creates energy and excitement, and then determining how to create more of it.
The AI approach involves the art and practice of asking questions that strengthen a system's capacity to heighten positive potential. It mobilizes inquiry through crafting an "unconditional positive question" often involving hundreds or sometimes thousands of people. The approach sounds unfamiliar, but the elements of Appreciative Inquiry can be seen throughout the business world.
This presentation provides a detailed overview of the 4 Phases of the AI process, and how the process functions:
1. Discovery
2. Dream
3. Design
4. Destiny
The slide deck then highlights the 5 Core Principles of Appreciative Inquiry:
1. The Constructionist Principle
2. The Simultaneity Principle
3. The Poetic Principle
4. The Anticipatory Principle
5. The Positive Principle
The deck also provides a comparison of AI against the Problem Solving approach, the benefits that AI leverages to organizations, and the 5 additional principles of AI that have evolved over time with practical implementation of AI in different industries.
The slide deck also includes some slide templates for you to use in your own business presentations.
