Welcome to the NVC Practice Group for seasoned practitioners—the folks who’ve sipped, gulped, or straight-up chugged the NVC Kool-Aid and are hungry for more.
Together, we’ll dive deep into the messy, magical, and sometimes maddening world of real-life NVC. Whether it’s workplace power struggles, sticky feedback conversations, or navigating those moments when “compassion” feels like a four-letter word, we’ve got you covered.
Each session will have a topic or focus. For example "Power Dynamics in Focus: From subtle hierarchies to outright conflict, we’ll explore how to use NVC to balance the scales and foster equity." There’s room here for laughter, learning, and irreverence (because let’s face it, sometimes giraffe ears are hard to keep on).
We've got 4 more dates coming up. Each one is drop-in (i.e., you do not have to register for the entire series).
