Abstract
Most of the challenges in organizations don’t need problem-solving but benefit from building and maintaining relationships. Therefore, a relational, conversational, social constructive approach to leadership is needed. Such a concept of leadership focuses on mobilizing our creative potential and returning to our creative source. This chapter proposes pathways into the power of our presence that will help us develop our full potential as appreciative leaders, coaches, or thinking partners.
