Positive psychology, Appreciative Inquiry, Positive Organizational Scholarship, & Positive HR
Almost a year ago, I put together a set of slides to illustrate the concepts and process in Positive Organizational Design. If you are beginning to read around the field of positive psychology, appreciative inquiry, positive organizational scholarship, or positive HR, you may find them useful.
They are five slides, each with quotations, beginning with
- David Cooperrider on Appreciative Inquiry
- The link between appreciating your own unique contribution and possibilities emerging in the world around us
