Appreciative Inquiry

center for appreciative inquiry logo At NECC, much of our work is rooted in Appreciative Inquiry—facilitating positive change in human systems, organizations, groups, and communities. Every human system (person or community) has a core of strengths that is often hidden and/or underutilized—what is known as its positive core. If you are looking for a certified AI Facilitator or Trainer, NECC can help.
