Movie Snippet on Appreciative Inquiry for Organizational Change.flv

Appreciative Inquiry (AI) is, in my view, an exciting breakthrough, one that signals a change in the way we think about change. Im intrigued by how rapidly it is emerging; but it is something substantive, conceptually strong, not like the quick fads. In my view we are looking at something important AI will be enduring consequence and energizing innovation for the field. Thats my prediction.
- Richard Beckhard

In this rapidly changing world, nothing is changing as fast as the management of change. Traditional Organizational Development (OD) efforts focus on what is wrong with organization and how to fix them. This leads to tremendous drain of energy and creates a sense of inadequacy in the people. Traditional OD efforts also require long time span for impacting. But, todays change management demands faster and more effective results.

AI is a different system - daring to dream and actually living up to that dream - of managing change. It is concerned with the positives of the organization in terms of what works. In other words, it seeks out the best of what already exists in the organization and then co-creating a vision based on that very solid reality. This makes people more energized, strengthened and hopeful about the co-created future. The new energy and innovative ideas can be tapped as the basis of a radical transformation of the organization.
