The course on Appreciative Inquiry opened my eyes to the profound power of the simplest of acts. Pausing and allowing for the freedom of response.
Throughout this course I was asked to bring my whole self authentically, genuinely, and vulnerably to work on being a relational leader.
The course provided me experiences and opportunities to explore aspirations and
build foundational skills that have already had reverberating and resonating effects on my personal and professional life.
Nicolas Karr, Peace Corps Tonga, Director of Programming and Training
The course was the best virtual experience I have had in the 13 months that I have been shut-in since before the pandemic. The tools leveraged for plenary, breakout, and offline were just the right lift to make an impact without feeling burdensome.
I am referring colleagues and integrating tools into my workshops immediately!

In 30 years of development work, it is the first time that I have left such a complex process energized and yet also practically focused.

The Spaciousness Theory of Change states that when leaders and their teams experience a sense of spaciousness within, not outside of, the complexity and conflict of these times, they can make decisions that inspire inclusion, innovation, and action plans for results that are collectively owned.
