“This workshop changed my perspectives on so many levels. To view things more positively – to look for what’s working. I plan to work on just that”. Vicki Gray, U.S. Geological Survey, San Diego, CA.
“This workshop gave me the opportunity to see the world differently, to see the possibilities and a brighter future and then create it. I found the topic something I can use in my personal and professional life. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and insights”. Terry Mayes, Director of Academic Programs & Assessment, University of Colorado
"It was so much fun to finally have the opportunity to facilitate the entire process, and now, to submit my practicum for evaluation. I greatly appreciate the high quality of the Company of Experts AI training, and all that you do to keep the organization vibrant, including the email newsletter. Many principles of AI have been woven through other work I do." Susan Sanford
Registration is now open for this powerful four day training. At the end of this intensive Appreciative Inquiry Facilitator Training (AIFT), participants will have the skills and foundation to facilitate Appreciative Inquiry sessions. Learn to guide organizations, groups and communities to consciously and deliberately shift their collective way of being and seeing to an appreciative approach, that will help them focus on what's right in their organization, group or community, rather than on what's wrong. Learn to guide them to deeply inquire into what's right and why, and then find ways of intentionally creating more of what's right in their organization, group or community.
This program has been developed and is presented by the Center for Appreciative Inquiry to provide a cost effective way for communities, people and organizations to dialogue and action for creating positive change.
This training is designed for:
Leaders in businesses and corporations, community development, educational organizations governmental organizations, and nonprofit organizations--in short, anyone who wants to learn how to facilitate Appreciative Inquiry. We encourage a team of at least two people from each organization, group, or community to attend so they can return home ready to co-facilitate AI sessions.
