Introduction to Appreciative Inquiry/Community Mediation, Inc., of New Haven, CT

This workshop, which is primarily experiential, is an introduction to Appreciative Inquiry for people who have some facilitation experience and skills.

We'll begin by defining Appreciative Inquiry, a method of identifying and building on an organization’s strengths by telling stories of the organization at its best, and explaining why this can be more effective than traditional problem-solving-based planning methods. 

Participants will then experience what it feels like to participate in two to three different simple Appreciative Inquiry activities. Finally, as a group we will pick a real-life situation from the participants' work life and design an Appreciative Inquiry intervention to address that situation.
