Would enjoy reading the synopsis of your project proposal. It is interesting that five of us who have national networks met in D.C. two months ago and are connecting to design a collaboration based on a similar concept.
Am familiar with Cooperider and Apprciative Inquiry. Have been using such tecniques for fifteen years. In 1997 was invited to present at an Imagine Chicago conference where the conference was designed around appreciative inquiry...a great technique for emergent ideas. I have found AI mainly to be used in non-transformative dialogue and interactions related to society....whether personally transformative or not.
If you are available now, I have some time and would enjoy talking to you about your idea. My number is 704 864-9196 or I will be glad to call you if you will give me your number.
Look forward to talking to you. Warm regards. Rick
Somehow I missed your message about Frank Armstrong in November. Am delighted you and he had such a good conersation. Had an email from him over Christmas. Would love to have a conference call in January if we can find a mutually convenient time. Hope you are enjoying the holidays and I look forward to continuing the dialogue.
Talked to Rick several years ago. Hope he is doing well. Say hello for me. Just sent you and Frank Armstrong an email so that the two of you can connect. His cell number is (781) 820-6122. Hope the two of you connect.
Welcome to the Community Transformer Network Shana...great to have you involved. Know you will enjoy getting to know these folks from all over who are involved with the emerging idea of community transformation. Will connect you with a colleague in MA, Frank Armstrong, who is an ABC minister in Weston and very interested and involved with seeding transformational thinking and action.

Time has passed at breakneck speed; somewhat like change! I'll be talking with Rick next Monday and hope we can connect once again.
