I am working on my Ph.D. at The College of William and Mary in Higher Educational Policy, Planning, and Leadership. My cognate work was in counseling. I took a graduate level course with Dr. Rick Gressard in Addiction Counseling and we were expose to and spent a lot of time discussing and practicing MI. My background is HR and OD and thought there could be application of MI with performance management and much of what you have postulated. I think it also closely ties into Appreciative Inquiry as well....I am fascinated by these concepts and think they all come together somewhere and can be applied in the workplace. I would be interested in further exploration of this application! Chris I am very interested in this concept.
