DESCRIPTION

Have you been wondering how to apply Nonviolent Communication (NVC) in real-life situations?

Would you like to become more comfortable with conflict— and understand the crucial role of feelings in conflict?

This beginner course could be exactly what you’ve been looking for! 

Life is full of relationships:

👨‍👩‍👦 Parents
🧒 Children
🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Spouse
🤝🏼 Co-workers

Yet applying NVC looks a little different in each of these contexts…

At work, there are time constraints.
With young children, you need to simplify.
With your partner, you need to learn to be more vulnerable.

In this course, you’ll learn how to apply NVC to different interpersonal dynamics and the basics for preventing and resolving conflicts with NVC.

You will learn:

  • How to create mutual understanding without manipulation or coercion
  • The crucial difference between the NVC framework and NVC consciousness
  • Tips for speaking your truth in a clear, powerful way more likely to lead to harmony than conflict
  • The keys to preventing and resolving misunderstandings and conflicts

Join us to explore the various ways NVC can be adapted for interpersonal success!

This course is part of our NVC Beginner’s Pathway

Learning Nonviolent Communication (NVC) can be an incredibly rewarding experience with the potential to fundamentally transform your understanding of yourself and others, and your relationships. But if you are new to the concept of Nonviolent Communication, you might be wondering where to start your learning journey.

Here at the NVC Academy we run a number of Live Courses every year. This particular course is part of our Beginner’s Pathway — courses for those who are new or relatively new to the practice of Nonviolent Communication. It is for those with little/no experience of NVC, or those who lack confidence in their practice of it.

While courses on our Beginner’s Pathway are designed for newcomers, seasoned NVC enthusiasts are very welcome to attend. Most long-time NVC enthusiasts enjoy the opportunity to get refreshers of some of the building blocks of Nonviolent Communication to reinvigorate and deepen their practice.
