In this week’s episode, we take a look at the most widely used format for structuring an Appreciative Inquiry process – the 5-D Format.
We’ll answer these questions (among others):
- How long does the 5-D process take?
- I’ve also heard of the 4-D format in Appreciative Inquiry – what’s the difference?
- What are its advantages over other change processes (even positive ones)?
- What happens in each of the stages?
