Communicating to Connect during Conflict
How do you communicate in a way that meets both parties needs, especially during difficult situations or when in conflict? How do you speak in a more loving, compassionate and empathetic way of understanding and functioning with others?
In this concentrated afternoon of 4 packed hours, we will explore the evidence based and tested ways of Compassionate Communication (a language of life as used by Marshall B. Rosenberg, Ph.D.) to explore how best we use a proven model to communicate our authentic feelings and needs.
