AN INTRODUCTORY WORKSHOP ON COMPASSIONATE, NONVIOLENT COMMUNICATION  based on the work of Marshall Rosenberg and taught by Gail Carroll

WOULD YOU LIKE TO

  • Know how to listen deeply and be confident you’ve been heard?
  • Gain greater skill in how you respond to anger, fear, and impatience?
  • Transform conflict and misunderstanding into harmony and connection?

Join us for an introduction to Nonviolent Communication (NVC), a language of compassion that can dramatically improve all of our relationships, from personal to professional. The NVC process can be used in a wide variety of real-life situations. By understanding and acknowledging the human needs that underlie everyone's words and actions, we can create a shared basis for connection, cooperation, and peace.

Gail Carroll began actively studying Non-Violent Communication in 2003 and is a 2006 graduate of the BayNVC’s intensive year-long Leadership Training. She has studied closely with Miki Kashtan for three years and is an assistant trainer at the 2008 BayNVC Leadership Training.  Her interest in NVC began as a parent wanting to be more conscious about how and what she communicated to her daughter.  She has discovered that NVC supports her in work, at home, and in understanding herself more fully.
