Definition of AI

One of the originators of Appreciative Inquiry defines it as:

“a process for engaging people in building the kinds of organisations and a world they want to live in. Working from peoples’ strengths and positive experiences, AI co-creates a future based on collaboration and open dialogue.”

— David Cooperrider

Or as Paul wrote to the Church in Philippi:

“Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”

— Philippians 4.8

And as Dame Julian of Norwich (c.1342-1416) expressed it:

“All shall be well, and all shall be well… For there is a force of love moving through the universe that holds us fast and will never let you go.”

— Revelations of Divine Love
