WHAT IS NVC ?
Non violent communication is a successful communication and transformation method based on universal human needs. This method empowers you to relate to yourself and the world around you in an authentic and compassionate way.

WHY IS NVC SO EFFECTIVE?
Non violent communication is based on the world wide known work of the American psychologist Dr. Marshall Rosenberg. He developed a simple and effective communication method which brings clarity and connection in human interaction. The main question is: what really matters to people in their life (work, family, development etc) and how can we use that as a starting point in our conversations, relations and cooperations?
