AI began as an Action Research method and Jane had the vision to bring it into the field of Organizational Development.
She was known as the 'mother' of Appreciative Inquiry. The story of Appreciative Inquiry is not complete without introducing Jane.
For 30 years Jane taught AI in more than 60 countries. She is the co-author of the book Appreciative Inquiry: Change at the Speed of Imagination.

This interview was filmed a couple of years after she had been diagnosed with dementia. While she would describe her brain as "not working as well as it used to", she came to life when she talked about Appreciative Inquiry.

When we take an appreciative mindset, we begin on the 'Learner" path or we if we start with deficit mindset, we go down the "Judger" path.
What makes this map even more practical is the introduction of the 'Switcher Lane'. Once we begin down the judger path (our default path) we can choose to cross over to the learner path.
In this six minute video, Marilee describes in detail the Choice Map:]]> 2021-02-01 16:50:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mckenna_maureen1/3y0114q9ote2zkgc/wish/1149734283 I have a problem and I want you to fix it. mckenna_maureen1 https://padlet.com/mckenna_maureen1/3y0114q9ote2zkgc/wish/1150417855 Marilee shares a story about a participant in her workshop who shared she loved her job and didn't like her boss.

"For the long-term, we know this from years of research: corporate cultures are almost totally tested and forged in the crucible of crises, during the most challenging times of external adaptation and internal integration. How leaders lead during times of catastrophe has an outsized effect on the future of such things as corporate trust, collective confidence, resilience or brittleness, and strong or elevating corporate culture. Times of crisis almost always reveal or reinforce an institution’s “true colors”— and it can be a time of lasting set-back or exceptional co-elevation and unified achievement.]]> 2021-02-01 19:01:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mckenna_maureen1/3y0114q9ote2zkgc/wish/1150463641 Introduction to Appreciative Inquiry by Jackie Kelm mckenna_maureen1 https://padlet.com/mckenna_maureen1/3y0114q9ote2zkgc/wish/1150518016 In this 10 minute interview, you will learn about the history of AI and Jackie will share the key principles of AI.]]> 2021-02-01 19:12:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mckenna_maureen1/3y0114q9ote2zkgc/wish/1150518016 Appreciative Inquiry in a Nutshell mckenna_maureen1 https://padlet.com/mckenna_maureen1/3y0114q9ote2zkgc/wish/1150523502 Short article that explains Appreciative Inquiry philosophy and the assumptions of AI.

(add to comments below or email Mo McKenna) mckenna_maureen1 https://padlet.com/mckenna_maureen1/3y0114q9ote2zkgc/wish/1154945851 We are working on gathering different ways to connect with others when there may be strong emotions present. We want to create a resource that can provide some guidance. This is our first draft ...

Begin by PAUSING:

- Remain calm, take a deep breath

- Stay curious & lean back into the other person’s conversation first. Do not start with your own thoughts.

- Ask questions, keeping the issue separate from the person

- Be alert for either/or thinking - aim for both/and thinking

CONSIDER some of these comments ... what other comments have you used that helped?
· “What you said triggered in me a realization that I struggle with similarly. Please tell me the story of how you came to that point. I want to understand what you are saying.”

· “You feel very strongly about this topic. Please tell me what brought it about.”

· “I’m feeling your anger, & frustration, could we return to what you said a little later? I need to calm down & reflect. When might be a convenient time for us to get together again?

Be practical and use the Switching Lane Video mckenna_maureen1 https://padlet.com/mckenna_maureen1/3y0114q9ote2zkgc/wish/1258098538 As humans, our brain is wired to keep us alive. You may be aware of the fight or flight reaction that arises in response to a threat to our lives that during prehistoric times was necessary for the survival of the species. Today, although we don’t face those same threats, our brain is wired to perceive them as dangerous and will overreact to modern stressors that are not life-threatening.

A common stressor that I have observed, especially in this past year of the pandemic, is how easily people are triggered by “those other people” and are quick to blame and complain. What’s important about this observation is that we have the tools innately to counteract how we are wired to respond.

When “other people” trigger you and you find fault with them or maybe yourself, you become judgmental. This is normal. When you notice how your body reacts to this, it is an opportunity to engage in somatic practice, such meditation. And you can pay attention to the questions you are asking yourself about the person or situation. Watch 2 min video
