Description
Appreciative Inquiry (AI) is an organizational development process of exploration based on the power of positive inquiry. The focus of AI involves creating a collaborative environment of discovery into what makes an organization most effective. Based on positive psychology principles, rather than spotlighting breakdowns and malfunctions, AI asks questions that ignite the positive energy within the organization.
Join Dr. Francis Battisti as he offers an overview of the principles and processes of AI and how they can be used within each of our organizations to create an organizational culture of creativity and reflective thought, enhancing the quality of care delivery. A Plan of Action will be initiated during the presentation
to begin the process of incorporating AI practices.
This informational video is provided to alumni of our Sisters Aging Well Together program. It reflects AIG's ongoing commitment to support Communities.
