Conclusion Appreciative inquiry can successfully be applied to improve performance in
a Higher Education context, for both academic and non-academic staff.
• The Appreciative Inquiry Process is inclusive, consultative, generative and energizing.
AI, as a philosophy and process that is based on what is positive and that is applied through collaboration, may provide a paradigmatically different point of departure to ensure improved performance
