This document outlines an appreciative inquiry workshop focused on talent, growth, and dreaming about the future. The workshop involves participants reflecting on what growth means to them, how others support their growth, sharing stories, and envisioning what the future could look like if everyone used their talents. Participants discuss topics like cars, sports, forests, food, and animals, considering what they know and want to learn. They also discuss seeing the development of children in areas like math and relationships. The workshop emphasizes focusing on individuals' strengths and sharing stories to bring people together.
