Miki Kashtan, Certified NVC Trainer:
Miki works with a course participant to transform begrudging attendance at a mandatory meeting into the possibility for collaboration, more connection where little is expected and focus on clarity of purpose for meeting in the first place.
In this segment, Miki refers to 4 questions that workshop participants were asked to consider coming into the session .
- Think of a situation in your workplace to which you would like to bring NVC. Describe the situation in pure observational terms.
- How do you imagine that NVC could contribute in this situation? Whose needs would be served? How?
- What are the obstacles you foresee to bringing NVC to this situation (e.g. someone disapproving; power relations; resources needed; etc)?
- How can you imagine facing these obstacles using NVC?
