He eventually completed his PhD research in partnership with the Taos Institute and the University of Twente in 2018. Repeatedly asked by his clients to propose an efficient approach to group development and change management in half-day or full day formats, Francois developed a particularly efficient methodology for collective leadership development inspired by three key principles of Appreciative Inquiry: The Constructive Principle, The Positive Principle, and The Anticipatory Principle. After 20 years of practice and research, the Group Leadership Seminar has proven to be one of the most effective organizational development exercises to bring meaning, direction, and cohesion to any task group. The methodology, offered in the form of a participatory workshop, in person or virtually, is based on two complementary group reflection activities. First, The Appreciative Assessment (based on the positive principle) has the group identify from an appreciative perspective the major priorities and values ​​that engage and unite the group. Then, The Wall of Intentions (based on the anticipatory principle), has the group identify the major intentions and common actions that unite the group forward. The method creates collective meaning and collective willing with the full contribution of each person in the team, whether it is a board of directors, a management team, or an employee assembly, regardless of the size of the group. The Group Leadership Seminar also applies in the context of participatory strategic planning exercises. This interactive session was an opportunity to briefly present this simple and efficient methodology, and experience it as a group, so everyone could learn and reapply it later on their own. The Taos Institute is a non-profit educational organization. We strive to make our programs and resources accessible to as many people as possible around the world.
