Appreciative ADR represents a culmination of Vitus's fifteen years of experience in teaching ADR, particularly in Workshop Training. After revamping an otherwise dull course by utilizing Appreciative Inquiry (AI) as both a philosophical and process framework for Workshop Training, and observing its transformative effect on how his students received, enjoyed, and evaluated the course, Ozoke concluded that AI would serve effectively as an organizational framework for all ADR methodologies. Appreciative ADR extends an open invitation to teachers, students, and practitioners of Alternative Dispute Resolution to conceive, structure, and implement their interventions "appreciatively", employing the principles and processes of Appreciative Inquiry.
