Appreciative inquiry (AI) is a model for analysis, decision-making and the creation of strategic change, particularly within companies and other organizations. It was developed at Case Western Reserve University's department of organizational behavior, starting with a 1987 article by David Cooperrider and Suresh Srivastva. They felt that the overuse of "problem solving" as a model often held back analysis and understanding, focusing on problems and limiting discussion of new organizational models.〔Cooperrider, D.L. & Srivastva, S. (1987) Appreciative inquiry in organizational life. In Woodman, R. W. & Pasmore, W.A. (eds) Research in Organizational Change And Development, Vol. 1 (129–169). Stamford, CT: JAI Press.〕 == History == Cooperrider and Srivastva took a social constructionist approach, arguing that organizations are created, maintained and changed by conversations, and claiming that methods of organizing were only limited by people's imaginations and the agreements among them.〔Cooperrider, D. L., Barrett, F., Srivastva, S. (1995). Social construction and appreciative inquiry: A journey in organizational theory. In Hosking, D., Dachler, P. & Gergen, K. (eds.) Management and Organization: Relational Alternatives to Individualism (157–200)〕 In 1990, Cooperrider and Diana Whitney published an article outlining the four principles of AI.〔Cooperrider, D.L. & Whitney, D (2001) A positive revolution in change. In Cooperrider, D. L. Sorenson, P., Whitney, D. & Yeager, T. (eds.) Appreciative Inquiry: An Emerging Direction for Organization Development (9–29). Champaign, IL: Stipes.〕 In 1996, Cooperrider, Whitney and several of their colleagues became centrally involved using AI to mid-wife the creation of the United Religions Initiative (www.uri.org), a global organization dedicated to promoting grassroots interfaith cooperation for peace, justice and healing. This early and partnership between URI and AI is chronicled in Birth of a Global Community: Appreciative Inquiry in Action by Charles Gibbs and Sally Mahé. On May 8, 2010, Suresh Srivastva died.〔http://www.taosinstitute.net/suresh-srviastva〕 Gervase Bushe, a researcher on the topic, published a 2011 review of the model, including its processes, critiques, and evidence.〔Bushe, G. R., (Appreciative Inquiry: Theory and Critique )〕 He also published a history of the model in 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「appreciative inquiry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
