Creating Our Future Together with Appreciative Inquiry

Introduction

The role of the System Office is to provide leadership, support and service to the KCTCS network of colleges in order that those colleges create a positive and significant impact across the state-economically, socially, and environmentally. The coming years will be filled with challenges and opportunities and the success of KCTCS will depend upon its capacity for learning, adapting and innovating. Everyone at KCTCS has the opportunity to play a key role in this endeavor.

This six-month AI course is designed to support you. It is not to replace your current skills and strengths, but rather to build upon those and expand your opportunities to be both influential in the future of KCTCS as well as successful in your position. The first step in this process is to take stock of where you are now and where you want to be six-months from now.

The following survey includes a number of questions that require you to reflect as you begin the upcoming AI course.  It may take you up to an hour to complete. Please take the time to consider the questions before writing your answers.

Confidentiality

Your answers will be held confidential and seen only by the instructor, Cheri Torres (unless you yourself decide to share your responses with others).

Deadline

Please complete the survey no later than Thursday, January 28 at noon. This will give the instructor time to take your responses and goals into consideration before the on-site program the following week.
