Welcome to the Communication Group
A revolutionary model for communication which supports both compassion and empowerment.
Based on ‘Nonviolent Communication’ created by Marshall Rosenberg, the Communication Group has a range of programmes for business, government, schools, individuals and families.
The Foundation of NVC
What we say IS powerful. Our words, and how we hear others, affect the level of trust and conflict we experience in each of our relationships. By learning NVC we bring power, compassion and love to every interaction, whether at work or home.
Dr Marshall Rosenberg’s time proven process of Nonviolent Communication, (named from alignment with Ghandi and Martin Luther King) is a world famous methodology to:
- Create exceptional personal and professional relationships
- Ask for compassionate understanding for ourselves
- Hear behind the way something is being said to hear what is really meant
- Prevent and resolve misunderstandings and conflict
- Speak authentically, in a way that leads to harmony
- Create willingness without coercion
These 4 simple steps within NVC help you let go of habits of blame, criticism, submission, aggression and “fixed thinking” which make it difficult to connect with those we care about. You really can build happy and powerful relationships.
