WHAT IS APPRECIATIVE
INQUIRY?
A POSITIVE REVOLUTION IN CHANGE: APPRECIATIVE
INQUIRY BY DAVID L. COOPERRIDER AND DIANA
WHITNEY
Appreciative Inquiry is about the coevolutionary search for the
best in people, their organizations, and the relevant world
around them. In its broadest focus, it involves systematic
discovery of what gives life to a living system when it is most
alive, most effective, and most constructively capable in
economic, ecological, and human terms.
COOPERRIDER AND WHITNEY (2001)
AI involves, in a central way, the art and
practice of asking questions that
strengthen a systems capacity to
apprehend, anticipate, and heighten
positive potential.
It centrally involves the mobilization of
inquiry through the crafting of the
unconditional positive question often
involving hundreds or sometimes
thousands of people.
In AI the arduous task of intervention
gives way to the speed of imagination
and innovation; instead of negation,
criticism, and spiraling diagnosis, there is
discovery, dream, and design.
AI seeks, fundamentally, to build a constructive union
between a whole people and the massive entirety of what
people talk about as past and present capacities:
achievements, assets, unexplored potentials, innovations,
strengths, elevated thoughts, opportunities, benchmarks, high
point moments, lived values, traditions, strategic
competencies, stories, expressions of wisdom, insights into
the deeper corporate spirit or soul-- and visions of valued and
possible futures. - Cooperrider and Whitney
