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.

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.
