Appreciating Appreciative Inquiry...
- Norma Bauer

For those who like to reflect on things prior to our First Saturday dialogue, I'm going in with the hope that the group who come will want to apply the Appreciative Inquiry process to sustainability. 

Key questions that Rob introduced and we could address include:

• What's working?
• What makes us feel magnetically alive and connected?
• What do we need to do to make that happen more?
• What is some low-hanging fruit--things that could be done that yield an optimal return with minimal effort?
  
  Reading about "flow" prior to the meeting might make you feel more prepared.  I also encourage you to check out "Appreciative Inquiry" by putting that in your web browser and also checking what LeRoy's website has to say about it.
  
  Still, as always, I'm open to the dynamics of the day in a very organic way.  If there are new developments and / or burning issues, we can all agree by consensus to do something else and put this off for another day.
