In the realm of Appreciative Paradigm and Inquiry, the mantra ‘words create worlds’ resonates deeply, emphasizing the transformative potential of language. Through oral and written expressions, our linguistic choices shape our perceptions and aspirations. This essay explores Appreciative Language’s essence, tracing its roots, unique traits, and its role in social sciences. By examining its distinct ontology, research methods, intervention approaches, axiology and defining characteristics, we unravel its potential impact on fostering positive change and shaping a better world.

This article describes an organizational continuous process improvement project using Appreciative Inquiry to evaluate staff members’ perception of their unreasonable workload, as indicated in the Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey. The goal for approaching the management-directed study was to use AI to frame the conversation around the lifegiving forces aspects AI brings to the organization rather than a traditional continuous process improvement approach in which we would investigate a problem, identify issues, and propose solutions to correct it.

Creating film portraits for a Ph.D. on Appreciative Leadership, mentored by Nic Askew, has become both an art and a business Joep de Jong cherishes. He says, ‘crafting these portraits became an art and passion’. Holding unconditional space fosters profound connections. Editing, though laborious, offers deep self-discovery. Three poignant portraits emerged, each a testament to serendipity and profound human connection.
