This is followed by a "check-in" when we share how we are, what we bring with us or what we hope to receive during the session.

Introduction à la Communication Nonviolente

• Communication aliénante: modes et impact
• Intentions de la CNV
• Mouvements et étapes du processus de la CNV
• Élaboration et exercices pour chacune des étapes
• Pratiques d'empathie
• Pratiquer la gratitude

Co-formateur: Jean-Philippe Bouchard

We will cover the basics of Nonviolent Communication.  We will explore what needs get met by using alcohol and drugs and what needs do not get met.  Participants will discover how to transform this pattern in a way that meets more needs.  The motivation for this change comes not out of shame, guilt, anger or depression, but out of the genuine desire to contribute to our own and other's well being.

Auf Basis der Nonviolent Communication® können Sie Ihre Kompetenzen weiter entwickeln, selbstverantwortlich Beziehungen gestalten und eine wertschätzende, respektvolle Haltung stärker integrieren.
Jeder verfügt über emotionale Intelligenz, doch lang erlernte Sprachmuster erschweren es oft, sich der inneren Klarheit und Stärke bewusst zu werden und sie zu nutzen.

Unsere Ausbildungen und Aufbautrainings haben bisher Menschen besucht, die die Qualität ihrer Beziehungen verbessern und ihre Entscheidungs- und Handlungsmöglichkeiten erweitern möchten, im beruflichen oder privaten Umfeld:
als Führungskraft, Projektleiterin oder Kollege, in beruflichen Veränderungsprozessen, Familie und Partnerschaft, mit Kunden, Patienten, vor Gericht, in Beratungs- und Lehrtätigkeiten, in journalistischer oder interkultureller Arbeit.
