Hi everyone,

I am contacting you on behalf of the two guest editors for the AIP August 
2007 issue, Jackie Stavros and Gina Hinrichs. The focus of the August issue is

Strategy

This issue is designed for those who want to get a solid grounding in the key 
concepts and practice of strength-based strategic thinking, planning, and 
implementation. 

The SOAR framework and approach will be provided along with several case 
studies from organizations demonstrating its application and positive impact 
providing measurable results both financial and performance improvement.
