Appreciative Inquiry
A system-wide engagement with multiple stakeholders, AI is not primarily a “business” methodology, but rather a way of asking questions and learning about any system. We have successfully employed it with both individuals and church-wide stakeholders. AI is a method of discovery: it identifies what is most life-giving within a context, how to appreciate those stories, to envision and describe a shared future expression of those strengths, and to intentionally design a path toward that vision. AI explores not “what’s broken” but what is working, to discover how to cultivate and increase those practices.
