ABSTRACT

Robbert Masselink: I asked Wick to contribute to the second edition of a Dutch book on Appreciative Inquiry. What stood out was that Joep K. de Jong and I, as editors, didn’t have to change anything. It was well written, with a crystal clear message. During the last three years I have had the privilege to work closely with him in giving AI courses for AI practitioners. Everything that he talks about in this article on education and AI is what he practised himself in a very congruent way. By ‘living’ the principles, he showed others how to put theory into meaningful action.
