Connections

Northeast Strength-Based Network

This is a special interest group on LinkedIn made up of primarily, but not totally strength-based practitioners in the Northeast of the U.S. The group periodically meets in my native Vermont and offers virtual conferences, discussions, and meetings focused upon strength-based practices.

This is a web site in Spanish for uniting practitioners of Appreciative Inquiry. I am the Guatemalan coordinator, while the network consists of coordinators for the countries of Spain, Cuba, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Uruguay, and Brazil.
