welcome 1

welcomeWe are delighted that you are participating in the fifth World Ap-preciative Inquiry Conference, held here in Ghent - a worldwide AI event that provides a context to meet, to connect, to learn and to create. Almost 600 people, coming from 45 different countries, are joining you this week during the pre-conference & conference.

This conference will be focusing on scaling-up the generative pow-er of Appreciative Inquiry. Decision makers in business and society, AI-practitioners and scholars from all over the world will share and learn from exceptional outcomes, showcasing the generative ca-pacity of AI towards an ‘economy’ of connecting strengths.

Since AI has been brought into organisational life over two decades ago, we have learned a lot about strengths-based practices and leadership. The community of people applying AI at all levels of organisational and social life is growing continuously. The large group of people participating at this 2012WAIC proves it: AI is a truly global innovation.

Today AI is challenged enormously to contribute to a wider societal application. Questions and issues in our complex and interconnec-ted society are in essence interdependent: they can no longer be resolved from a single perspective. To meet the challenges of to-day, we must find other ways to grow ourselves, to develop the or-ganisations we work in, as well as the communities we live in. We should excel in the way we connect, learn, collaborate and merge our strengths. We strongly believe that the generative power of AI will lead to sustainable breakthroughs by establishing strong and interconnected relationships with multiple actors.

In these times, it is our privilege to welcome you to this fifth World AI Conference,

De Werf (a partnership between Kessels & Smit, Stebo and Evenwicht)
