Appreciative Inquiry, a concept developed by David Cooperrider, brings structure and positivity to a world where 80% of all change efforts fail. It is being hailed as a breakthrough by organisations as diverse as Apple and National Grid, Siemens, IBM and Novartis – revolutionising the field of organisation development and change management.

Download a copy of the slides from CRF's event - "Appreciative Inquiry and the New Change Equation" to learn about the following:

• how to bring out the best in human systems, rallying people in change-resistant environments to realise new and better futures
• how to recognise the core abilities and skills to mobilise decisive change and create individual and organisational success
• why people resist change
• the ‘4-D’ cycle of discovery, dream, design and destiny
• Appreciative Inquiry tools which can be applied immediately at all levels of an ever changing organisation.

Lane4 - Disruptive thinking for a disruptive world - booklet

Disruption isn’t just tomorrow’s challenge. We need to be able to think disruptively and respond to a rapidly changing business environment, today. Lane4’s latest research shows that the context of business has shifted significantly and what worked in the past for leaders and organisations no longer does. In order to successfully navigate their businesses through an uncertain future, senior leaders need to think and act differently.

Rewards for Speed, Productivity and Agility

Rewards – the purpose of which is to attract, retain, and motivate employees - are the most static HR process. Though potentially a powerful lever for change, in practice they are a force for the status quo – far more often acting as a roadblock to rather than a facilitator of organisational agility. Many reward leaders do not know how reward systems could be otherwise. The academic and business press offer little help; only a handful of articles have ever been published on the topic. Gerry’s session reviewed why rewards have become impediments to dealing with disruption in far too many organisations and offered some prescriptions for making rewards far more adaptive in the future.

Global Economic Outlook - competing for talent

In our first speaker session, Nuria shared the latest news about the global economic outlook. In a word, it’s worrying. The outlook is worsening – growth is slowing all around the globe, and growth projections have declined over the past year for virtually all advanced economies, and emerging ones too. Although emerging economies (especially India) are still growing, growth is slightly less robust than previously forecast; in advanced economies, growth is best described as anaemic, and some economies are already teetering on the brink of technical recession. This is especially true in the UK, where Brexit has already had a negative impact on growth.

Appreciative Inquiry Summit - Workbook Example

Why do most change project fail? Often it is due to smaller committees within the organisation rolling out the change initiative through a wider organisation. However, this approach creates silos and leads to a greater resistance from a wider group. Appreciative Inquiry Summit is an alternative approach to enabling change that involves the whole organisation in the process.
