Appreciative Presence: A Hidden Ingredient in the Appreciative Inquiry Magic
Abstract
essential yet often overlooked dimension of Appreciative Inquiry, is hard to put into words. To explore its depth, Niels Heetvelt joined a two-day masterclass alongside eleven other participants. Through this immersive experience – and in a candid interview – he discovered, with guidance from experts Hanneke Laarakker and David Shaked, that the magic of Appreciative Presence cannot be scripted or engineered. What you can do, however, is to open all the doors to let it in.
