Appreciative Inquiry

I am an Appreciative Inquiry Coach and would love the world to adopt this very positive and wonderful way of working, interacting, and living in order for life, politics, and just about everything else regarding human beings, to be a more positive thing.
 In the mid 80s, David Cooperrider introduced Appreciative Inquiry, the idea that rather than focusing on trying to fix problems, which means constantly focusing our attention on problems, corporations look, with appreciation, at what is actually working.  His idea was that through the four step process he has named Discovery, Dream, Design and Destiny, human systems (meaning businesses, communities and families) could essentially accentuate the positive, and build on what is working well, in order to repeat and enlarge their successes.
The process should involve everyone concerned, rather than just management, or in the case of families, parents, so that everyone has input and therefore a stake in the outcome. When everyone has a say in what is working well, and everyone casts an appreciative eye at the system, participants are able to build commitment and confidence, so that they feel they have taken part in any resulting successes, and continue to participate in creating more successes.  This is a living process that can start simply by questioning what is working.  We have been taught to "learn from our mistakes", and so it is easy to fall into problem solving, again, focusing our attention on mistakes and problems. If we carry around a mental list of “don’ts”, when it comes time to act, will we know how to do so? Heightening awareness of what works gives us the confidence in what we are doing and how we are doing it, to continue to improve and build on success.
