ODL-676 Social Methodologies for Transformational Change

4 semester credits
This course explores two participative and powerful methods for creating change in social systems - Appreciative Inquiry (AI) and World Café. Both approaches consciously engage large groups and systems in effective appreciative conversation for the purpose of large-scale systems transformation. Because appreciative conversation represents a major shift in how organizational development practitioners work with organizations, students will learn the theory and practice of these approaches, particularly as it relates to taking an intentional “stance” from which one engages the world.
