Aims of the tool

To show how small shifts in communication can foster more connection, clarity, and collaboration at work and in life, by practicing the four steps of Nonviolent Communication (NVC).

Description of the tool

This workshop, titled “Better Conversations at Work and in Life”, offers adults practical tools to transform their daily communication through the principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC). Participants learn to:
- Distinguish observations from assumptions
