Action Inquiry

What exactly is Action Inquiry?

The short answer is that Action Inquiry is a skill, a discipline and a process that focuses on individuals and the way they work. Our Director of Research at Harthill, Bill Torbert, describes Action Inquiry as "simultaneously conducting action and inquiry as a disciplined leadership practice that increases the wider effectiveness of our actions. Such action helps individuals, teams, organizations become more capable of self-transformation and thus more creative, more aware, more just and more sustainable". You can read more here.

Action Inquiry is powerful stuff. It concerns the very nature of who we are, what we know, what we do and how we expand our knowledge and capabilities.  This simple yet profound technique has the power to transform what we see and how we act. That's why Action Inquiry is at the heart of our work transforming leadership, team performance and strategy.
