Estimated Unit Duration: 3.5 hours Webinar

The key themes of SOP Module 11 are:

  • Appreciative Inquiry (AI) is an approach to organizational change that draws on a core belief very closely related to solution-focused practice: What we pay the most attention to has the best chance of growing.
  • AI can be used to help solidify new ways of working within an organization and with families, and it can help individuals recognize their own skills and solutions to difficult problems.
  • “Appreciative Inquiry is the cooperative search for the best in people, their organizations, and the world around them. It involves systematic discovery of what gives a system ‘life’ when it is most effective and most capable.”
  • Michael White says, “I never assume that bringing together a group of people without a structure will be helpful. Holding to a firm and transparent structure creates the best possible conditions for success.”
  • Group supervision offers an opportunity for sharing our practice and for reflection. It is an integral practice in a learning organization.

The minimum number of participants needed for this unit is 5, maximum is 25. Consult with your supervisor if you are interested in this unit.
