Have you ever put your foot in your mouth? When was the last time you regretted saying or writing something to someone else? How do you deal with pushy and verbally rough around the edges people?
Non-violent Communication theory and practice helps us express deep awareness of our inner state, empathy to the plight and needs of others, and offers a way to help us authentically express ourselves that helps inspires others.
Non-violent Communication theory, first developed by Marshall Rosenberg PhD, “supposes all human behavior stems from attempts to meet universal human needs and that these needs are never in conflict. Rather, conflict arises when strategies for meeting needs clash. Non-violent Communication theory proposes that if people can identify their needs, the needs of others, and the feelings that surround these needs, harmony can be achieved.”
This talk and Q & A will explore the basics of this theory and its four main components of practice.
Presented by Susan Shoshin Aranoff.
