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.

This is a 2-day non-residential foundation training in NVC. Our aim is to support you to acquire a clear basic understanding of the NVC process and how you can use it in your daily life - in personal, social or work situations. We intend to do this by outlining the main elements of NVC and providing opportunities for you to practice expressing them in different contexts - out loud, through writing and through role-play in small groups of 2 or 3. We see this course as providing a 'foundation' for you, so that you can progress with NVC in your daily life and in further trainings if you so desire. Please visit our website for more information and to read comments from previous participants.

Anger
is a powerful emotion. It is an emotion which is at the same time
essential for our well-being and potentially very destructive. Due to
what our culture has taught us about anger, many of us swing between
the poles of being unable to express our anger, and expressing it in
destructive ways. During this day we will explore the different faces
that anger takes, distinguishing between supportive and destructive
anger, and learning how to use NVC to express what is really going on
underneath our anger.
