From the new University course of Mid Sweden University on Appreciative Inquiry
We were five members of the Swedish network who chose to participate in the startup summit of a 7,5p course in AI arranged by the Mid Sweden University – department of Quality and Sustainability.
As we arrived, the first impression was the diversity of the participants. We were from 20 to 60 years. Some had no experience with AI, others had quite deep knowledge.
For some of us with more experience in these ideas it was a striking illustration of the power of questions, and the strength of these method. You can enter on any level and still be in a real learningposition. When we start asking questions, we connect to each others, and to our innerselves. Working with our strengths always kicks of dreams about the future. As the three of us was driving back to Stockholm again, a 700 km journey, we all had new insights and had made decision about our futures.
The location was very unusual for a University Course – we were in a conferencehotel at the entrance to the high mountains. There was a lot of snow outside, and when we left to return home the temperature was -27C. That is cooold.
