ABSTRACT

The quest for a flourishing Earth is the most significant Appreciative Inquiry and organization development opportunity of the 21st century. The more successful our macro AI becomes (for example, helping Tesla Motors electrify the renewable energy age) the more powerful our micro OD impact will become (a flourishing enterprise on the inside). Why? Because of the concept we now call ‘mirror flourishing’ – it’s about giving beyond ourselves, and it is the most potent force on the planet.
