Appreciative Inquiry For A Supportive Climate, 2024 Buffalo State University
Appreciative Inquiry For A Supportive Climate, Ann Liao
Proceedings of the New York State Communication Association
Most of the nonprofit organizations rely heavily on volunteers. In a service-learning course that works with nonprofit community partners, it is important to foster a supportive climate.
