How is NVC different from other self-help, communication or conflict resolution tools?

  • Unique Assumptions—NVC begins by assuming that we are all compassionate by nature and that violent strategies—whether verbal or physical—are learned behaviors taught and supported by the prevailing culture. It also assumes that we all share the same, basic human needs, and that all actions are a strategy to meet one or more of these needs.
  • It’s Simple—NVC offers an effective four-step communication process that’s easy to grasp.
  • More Than a Communication Model—NVC goes beyond communication techniques by showing us how to stay connected to the life energy in ourselves and others. It also helps us to be conscious about the impact of how we think and how we use language in everyday conversation.
  • Broad Application—NVC is a powerful tool with a variety of applications, from interpersonal relationships to international negotiation; personal healing to conflict resolution; social change to drug/alcohol treatment; trauma recovery to prison inmate rehabilitation.
  • Results Are Substantial—NVC helps transform anger, destructive attitudes and habitual behaviors into more peaceful, life-serving actions. Around the globe, NVC has contributed to a significant reduction in violence in some of the most war-torn regions. NVC helps individuals, families and organizations reduce conflict, foster trust, deepen emotional connections, heal pain and strengthen personal empowerment.

What others do may be a stimulus of our feelings, but not the cause.

I think the course is amazing, I'm a long-time student of NVC and keep learning new things as I go back and review "beginner" information so I knew this course would be worthwhile. It has definitely been that, and more!

This course is easy to navigate and instructions are clear and concise. The course outline and check list were very helpful in providing ease of navigation, an overall view of the course and a quick review of what categories I had completed. The material is well organized and provides a nice variety of audio, visual and printed material. I also enjoyed hearing from a variety of teachers. I appreciate the self-assessment intervals and journaling (even though I didn't want to do them at first). It's so helpful to see what I've learned or how my perspective has changed as I go through the course.

So far this course has met my need for ease, predictability, understanding, growth and support. I'm very grateful to you all for all the time, work, thought and dedication that was involved in creating and maintaining this course.
