Using Creative Problem Solving (CPS) can open up new possibilities in organizations, but focusing on problems can drain team energy and fail to produce long-term change. This immersive multiday workshop helps you master practical ways to deliver more team engagement and better outcomes using Appreciative Inquiry (AI). Appreciative Inquiry uses meaningful questions and focuses on strengths and successes to help teams co-create the future they seek. This interactive session is designed to provide you with concepts and tools to use a combination of AI and CPS in your organization to achieve immediate benefits.
While working on a topic of your choosing, you learn how to reframe problems as opportunities and design positive questions to open up new thinking and achieve buy-in from your team. You will see the power of asking unconditionally positive questions in action and how to design facilitations that leverage CPS tools with the AI methodology. From core concepts to practical tips to real-world examples, your learning is actionable to help you use Positive Creativity to find new possibilities that deliver better outcomes.
