Solving problems or seeking opportunities? Mission-based Appreciative Inquiry

With over 30 years working in nonprofits, Michael Mantel knows a thing or two about sustaining change over a long period of time. And as the President and CEO of Living Water International, an organization making waves in the WASH space, as well as the author of Thirsting for Living Water, Michael also knows when to shift the way change is made. By using the concept of Appreciative Inquiry, Michael shifted from a problem-solving perspective to an opportunity-seeking outlook, articulating a shared vision between Living Water and the communities that most benefit from their impact. Listen in to hear Justin and Michael discuss supporting changes in goals and strategy, esprit de corps, and December 23 miracles.
