“It could be argued that all leadership is appreciative leadership.
It’s the capacity to see the best in the world around us, in our
colleagues, and in the groups we are trying to lead. It’s the capacity
to see the most creative and improbable opportunities in the
marketplace. It’s the capacity to see with an appreciative eye the
true and the good, the better and the possible.”

“How often does the system work well?”
“What are the root causes of success.......how can we amplify these?”
“What are the essential conditions that need to be present for thischange process to succeed?”
The AI art of questionsHow would you describe a high-point experience at XXXX when you
were most alive and engaged?
What is it that you most value about yourself, your work and XXXX?
What are the core factors that give life to XXXX, without whichXXXX would cease to exist?
After falling into a deep sleep for some years you awaken to findthat XXXX is as you dreamt it could be. Positive changes andmiracles have happened and you are proud of what you see. As you take in the vision what do you see happening that is newand successful?
