Provocative Propositions

"Make no small plans. They have no magic to stir humanity's blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical plan once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistency." Daniel Burnham, a famous US architect, may have said those words in the late 19th century but it wasn't until the late 20th century that Appreciative Inquiry showed the way to generate provocative propositions in the service of transformational change.
