Appreciative Inquiry by Jan Reed
Drawing on the work of David Cooperrider and other pioneers in the area of appreciative inquiry (AI) to bridge the gap between consulting activity and academic research in AI, the author also reflects upon her experience of using AI as a research approach, shaping the asking of questions, gathering of information, and the communication of ideas.
