This in-person workshop will focus on providing an overview of this exciting movement within the academic advising community called Appreciative Advising. The presentation is based on the book titled, The Appreciative Advising Revolution.

1. Define Appreciative Advising.

2. Define and understand the main tenets of the six phases of Appreciative Advising.
