1 like1,039 views
The document discusses studies on transformational and incremental change. It focuses on using generative questions and conversations to challenge the status quo in novel and surprising ways. It proposes techniques like appreciative stories, brainstorming, and improvisation to rapidly generate positive change and new ideas through engagement, building relationships, and seeing issues in a new light. The goal is to foster reciprocity and create conditions for rapid, positive change without needing explicit permission by taking early, visible action.
