• Resumen

  • In the workplace, we normally focus on solving problems and difficulties. In doing so, we often employ terminology which is also associated with dissent and conflict. We talk about struggles with something or against someone, of fronts and coalitions. What if, however, we focused our concentration completely on the positive experiences and moments of inspiration through which we live each day? Appreciative Inquiry (AI) offers us the opportunity to see our work and organisations in a positive light for once.
