Joining us is the esteemed Dr. Jenny Bloom, a trailblazer in the field of educational leadership and the visionary behind the Office of Appreciative Education at Florida Atlantic University.
Dr. Bloom brings a wealth of experience and insight to the table, drawing from her extensive background as a tenured professor and former President of NACADA, the global community for academic advising professionals. In this conversation, Dr. Bloom shares the origins of Appreciative Advising, its profound impact on student success, and practical strategies for integrating appreciative inquiry across academic institutions. From the power of reflective questioning to the potential synergy between AI technology and human connection, Dr. Bloom offers a lot of great information for educators, advisors, and anyone passionate about fostering positive change in higher education.
