RAISING CRITICAL ISSUES ABOUT AI

• Paper - Five Theories of Change Embedded in Appreciative Inquiry by Gervase R. Bushe Ph.D. (phttp://www.gervasebushe.ca/appinq.htm). (1) I have already come across a consulting firm that asked people to rate how good the organization was on a number of items on a 5 point scale and called this appreciative inquiry. (2) A second concern is that some practitioners, especially graduate students, can develop a zealous attention to "appreciation" without any theoretical rhyme or reason to their practice.
