The truth is that empathy is not taught in schools, and that is a big problem.

Not to mention that empathy is an extremely important skill to have in order to succeed at work and in relationships. Many people believe that being empathic means being able to read others. But in reality empathy can be a much deeper and more personal ability to connect with others which is crucial to happiness and success. But so often it’s a struggle! We’re so often confused by our own thoughts, feelings and behaviors that it makes us unable to understand others. It makes it harder to share our ideas, opinions and goals. And we end up feeling lonely and unfulfilled.

In our course you’ll learn the practical tools and methods to overcome the communication struggle. You’ll be able to support yourself, your relationships, and cooperation in your everyday work.

The training is based on NVC (Nonviolent Communication) approach which is often called “language of life”. It helps us to communicate with honesty, respect and compassion, create high quality of connection and step beyond the binaries of “good” or “bad”. 

Nonviolent communication can be a game changer in the way we talk and listen to each other. It helps to transform our communities into environments where people thrive and contribute.

We’ll learn the NVC approach together step by step through understanding feelings and needs, raising self-awareness and practical exercises on improving communication skills. 

The training is led in a process-oriented way, which means that content and methods are being adjusted to every group and its needs. You’ll experience different methods involving cognitive thinking (short inputs, collecting knowledge), emotional intelligence (teamwork, examples from everyday life) and self-reflection (individual tasks, self-assessment). This mix provides a good learning experience and helps participants to be involved and achieve their own learning goals with support of the trainer.
