Description
Focus on pro-social success or antisocial missteps in diversity/inclusion? This work shares the effort to explore strength-based thinking versus deficit-based thinking as the ethos for directing diversity and inclusion. Appreciative inquiry (AI) poses a subtle, compelling, sea-changing query for the diversity and inclusion practitioners, critical thinkers, consultants, and leaders. In light of the growing interests in positive psychology, does a more efficacious path to inclusion exist? Can we find a new orthodoxy in a different approach for achieving inclusive results and pro-social behavior in human systems? Dr. Deat LaCour, an Industrial/Organizational Psychologist and scholar/practitioner working in Applied Behavioral and Social Science. He speaks, lectures, researches and creates solutions for human systems challenges for global clients. Dr. LaCour advocates for critical thinking, shifting one’s worldview and expanding perception for growth.
