The Appreciative Inquiry Trilogy
Author: Cooperrider, Gergen, Whitney, Anderson, McNamee, Ricketts, Willis, Schiller, Riley, Holland

The Appreciative Inquiry Trilogy: Leaders, Organizations, and Experiential Learning The Taos Institute is pleased to announce the first three books of the new Focus Book series. This series is designed to provide reader-friendly, cutting edge, low cost resources to change agents and those whom they serve. Appreciative Leaders: In the Eye of t... more »he Beholder, Edited by Marge Schiller; Bea Mah Holland; and Deanna Riley This book presents a model of Appreciative Leadership based on twenty-eight interviews, fifteen of which are included in the book. This small but comprehensive sample reveals the outstanding characteristics of appreciative leaders and their predominant behavioral attributes. The ways appreciative leaders engage in their daily practices are outlined in detail. "This is a landmark book, " according to Jane Watkins, an originator of Appreciative Inquiry. "It is an invaluable contribution to the literature that addresses the critically important question: What kinds of leaders will shape the radically different organizations called for by our constantly changing environment. The Appreciative Organization, by Harlene Anderson; David Cooperrider; Ken and Mary Gergen; Sheila McNamee; and Diana Whitney The founders of the Taos Institute have pooled their substantial resources to create a vision of a powerful and humanly nourishing form of organization and to share practices for bringing this organization into being. Based on their diverse experiences in organizational life, the authors are unanimous in their view that the appreciative construction of meaning is essential to the efficacy of an organization and the fulfillment of its participants. In clear and direct language, the volume treats the challenges of decision making, leadership, group functioning, personnel evaluation, and the relationship of the organization to its context. Bold ideas are developed, examples described, and multiple suggestions developed for creating the appreciative organization. Experience AI: A Practitioner's Guide to Integrating Appreciative Inquiry with Experiential Learning, by Miriam Ricketts and Jim Willis, of Executive Edge, Inc. This volume invites you to share in a conversation around the power and efficacy of embedding experiential learning models, tools and techniques into appreciative inquiry in order to accelerate positive change, motivate teams and individuals, generate buy-in and engage people at all levels. By sharing and learning from experience, people attain the high levels of rapport, empathy, trust and mutual understanding necessary to risk and embrace change together. When integrated into each stage of an Appreciative Inquiry, Experiential Learning supports and illuminates the AI process, making AI "come alive" for all stakeholders.
