About Gregg Kendrick
Gregg, a certified trainer for the Center for Nonviolent Communication, serves as Organizational Manager and an Associate Trainer for the NVC Training Institute. With an extensive background in business management, Gregg’s specialty is working with those who want to integrate NVC consciousness into a business, nonprofit or other organization. He formerly was co-owner & CEO of a software technology training firm for 19 years whose clients were mostly large corporations & government agencies. Within this business, he brought an awareness of NVC among the staff and transformed the structure & operation of the business to be in concert with the principals of NVC. Awed by the potency of that experience, he has been a full-time consultant/trainer for the last six years using NVC to co-create living organizations where people matter. Other key business experience includes serving on several boards of directors of nonprofit & for-profit organizations and co-managing an investment fund for seven years.
In 2004, he founded Basileia LLC with the mission of co-creating organizations where people thrive amidst authenticity, connection, interdependence and solidarity using the tools of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and Dynamic Self-Governance (DSG). An integral part of this mission is a vision of leadership based on inspiration, empowerment & trust rather than control, compliance and self-interest. Basileia offers workshops & consulting in NVC & DSG, including mediation, coaching, mentoring, facilitating of meetings, and organizational development. Gregg also founded the Charlottesville Center for Compassionate Communication in 2002 which hosts community training and programs in NVC.
While Gregg focuses on integrating NVC into organizations, as an NVC trainer he also offers public workshops, one-on-one mentoring, couples’ sessions, a program in a local prison, and he has been a trainer at International Intensive Trainings with Marshall Rosenberg. A current passion is exploring needs through sound and movement through such activities as Playback Theater & Contact Improv. He resides in Charlottesville, Virginia, with his wife and three daughters.
