The Center for Appreciative Inquiry_a branch of Company of Experts
Greetings!

What might be possible if community and organization members were fully engaged and using their strengths to collectively achieve shared visions?

 

Appreciative Inquiry is a collaborative, strength-based approach to both personal and organizational development that is proving to be highly effective in thousands of organizations and communities in hundreds of countries around the world. It is a way of bringing about change that shares leadership and learning - fully engaging everyone in the organization. By focusing on the organizations strengths, you can evolve into a true "center of excellence". Rather than focusing on problems, Appreciative Inquiry elicits solutions.


For over 20 years, we have helped thousands of individuals, groups, and organizations heighten their energy, sharpen their vision, and inspire action for change. To meet the growing demand of individuals wanting more Appreciative Inquiry, we are proud to announce that several appreciative events are scheduled and can be found on our Event Calendar. These events are available face-to-face, online, or both. We encourage you and others to participate in our fun Spring lineup.

Your friends at the Center for Appreciative Inquiry
