Appreciative inquiry evolved in the 1980's as a positive philosophy to guide change in organizations. Research shows that the severity of problems and conflicts can actually increase when too sharp of a focus is applied to them. This volume applies lessons learned from appreciative inquiry to executive and career coaching.
