Description:

The Appreciative Inquiry Commons is envisioned as a worldwide portal devoted to the fullest sharing of academic resources and practical tools on Appreciative Inquiry and the rapidly growing discipline of positive change. The site is intended to be a resource for leaders of change, for scholars, students, and business managers.

Since the original theory and vision for "Appreciative Inquiry Into Organizational Life" was articulated by David Cooperrider and Suresh Srivastva in 1987, there have been literally hundreds of people involved in co-creating new concepts and practices for doing AI, and for bringing the spirit and methodology of AI into organizations all over the world. The goal of the AI Commons is to provide an open and transparent communications crossroads for the world and people of Appreciative Inquiry around the world.
