Sara Orem, faculty member in the Capella University online’s School of Business and Technology, has co-authored a book titled ‘Appreciative Coaching: A Positive Process for Change’
“Rather than focusing on individuals in limited or problem-oriented ways, Appreciative Coaching guides the reader through four stages – Discovery, Dream, Design and Destiny – that inspire them to an appreciative and empowering view of themselves and their future,” Orem says. “What we have presented is really a new application of appreciative inquiry.”
Orem adds that the book is written for individual coaches of managers, executives, and “those who do one-on-one work with people who can influence and create change in their organizations.”
In addition to serving as a faculty member and coach in Capella University’s School of Business and Technology, Orem is the principal of her own coaching firm.
Sara Orem, PhD, is an adjunct faculty member at Capella University, an accredited, fully online university, has co-authored a new book titled Appreciative Coaching: A Positive Process for Change. Recent developments in psychology and organizational development suggest that people and organizations flourish when they focus on human ideals, achievements, and best practices. Appreciative Coaching, which has been published by Jossey-Bass, uses positive questions, mindfulness, and other tools to acknowledge the strengths of individuals and effect change. Orem’s co-authors are Jacqueline Binkert, PhD, and Ann Clancy, PhD.

I was part of the first Appreciative Coaching Program offered by Fielding and had the chance to be part of an OUTSTANDING virtual and very dynamic class facilitated by Ann Clancy and Jackie Binkert. As an student I got not just to learn everything they wrote about in their book but to apply it with my assigned partner with whom we developed all the stages of the AC model. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in stretching and getting outside the box. All the +20 graduates of this first program were very satisfied with the experience and we are hopeful they get to open a second part of it to continue the inquisitive dialogue.
