Now we are pleased to present a complete weekend NVC Conference with introductory, intermediate and in-depth sessions.
The weekend begins with keynote addresses by leading internationally-recognized trainers brought in from around the US: Jori & Jim Manske, Jeff Brown, Kit Miller, Barbara Larson and Doug Dolstad. They will join several popular local Certified NVC Trainers such as Rodger Sorrow, Liz Otterbein and others for breakout seminars and workshops.

Do you have something important to say and
lack the confidence and/or the language that would support you in its
delivery? Is the language you're using too narrow, too flat, too
confining to wholly encompass and accurately convey the fullness and
richness of your message? Is there an authenticity gap between what you
wish to say and what you finally end up saying? Perhaps your message is
packaged as a grievance and carries a negative charge. Or perhaps you
struggle to grasp the richness of the message yourself even though you
know intuitively that there's a positive element at its core. If only
you could access it and convey it with confidence and clarity. If only
you could deliver it in a way that would be authentic and
representative of what's important to you while also touching and
inspiring others.
This one day workshop will
provide tools to participants to examine messages they wish to convey,
their underlying motives and to then reconstruct their messages for
maximum positive impact.
Anger is powerful force. When we find ourselves in its grips, our heart rate
increases significantly, a fog comes over us and we usually find
ourselves being highly reactive with little regard for the
consequences. Later once we’ve cooled off, we often berate ourselves
for our behaviour. The cycle continues and we rarely get to the root of
it. Yet every angry expression is a tragic expression of an unmet need.
In this session, participants will explore the needs at the root of all
anger. They will then use a proven process that will equip them to
transform this raw emotion into a healthy and generative force as
opposed to toxic and destructive one.
Today, more than ever,
emerging leaders need the skills to communicate effectively in order to
unleash the highest potential in themselves and others. Learn why self
awareness is the key to inspiring others. Expand emotional intelligence
and develop interpersonal skills so you can more consistently act in
alignment with your goals and values. Learn the importance of empathy
in harnessing the generative power at the core of powerful emotions.
Support clear and productive communication between co-workers,
employees and clients and create mutually satisfying solutions
maintaining the trust and collegial respect of all concerned.
Do you value respectful, open and honest
dialogue but sometimes lose hope in achieving the results you would
like . . . finding yourself instead getting stuck in “interpersonal
mush”? Here’s a workshop that will give you a different spin on how we
get there in the first place and how to facilitate the kinds of
exchanges that are more likely to inspire appreciation and optimism for
all concerned. This interactive workshop focuses on the importance of
clear and effective communication founded in deliberate and passionate
expression that unifies people in achieving common goals.
Unleash the power of thoughts
and words to build strong and healthy relationships. Do you value
respectful, open and honest dialogue at home and at work but sometimes
find yourself instead getting stuck in “interpersonal mush”? Here’s a
workshop that will provide effective tools to facilitate clear and
effective communication that unifies people in achieving common goals.
Experience the Compassionate Nonviolent Communication process which methodically
breaks through old limiting patterns and replaces them with a pwoerful
way of communicating that is deeply satisfying and ultimately
liberating.
This workshop is interactive with
a mixture of didactic and experiential learning including written
exercises, small group work and role-playing, all within a supportive
atmosphere intended to engage what is at the core of our "aliveness".
Become an expert listener, a clear and effective communicator, and
