Having studied with and continuing to collaborate along side David Cooperrider, Ron Fry, and many other thought-leaders in the field of Appreciative Inquiry (AI) for over 20 years, I find that everyday (including every conversation with colleagues or my own kids) brings new opportunities for me to practice my appreciatively inquiring skills.
As the Academic Director for the Cooperrider Center at Champlain College, I support the global hub for helping others learn, apply and amplify Appreciative Inquiry.
As a member of the editorial team I support the Journal's aims to foster a flourishing community of AI practitioners who in turn support each other in their work practices.
My column Possibilitizing explores ways individuals and organizations can move beyond the problems that plague us and toward the possibilities that propel us.
