POSITIVE COMMUNICATION

With the tools of NVC (NonViolent Communication)

Positive communication is an invitation to be assertive without crushing others, to be natural without being impulsive, peaceful without being extinct, authentic without being volcanic, to listen to others without forgetting oneself. Between rebellion that says too much and submission that swallows one’s words, there is a third way: that of positive communication.

 

It allows for clarity, autonomy, assertiveness (the ability to say what is important for oneself while taking into account oneself and the other) and the courage to speak up about difficult messages. As an art of dialogue that can be learned, a way of being in a relationship that encourages cooperation to take care of each person’s needs and values. Positive communication works with the tools and philosophy of NonViolent Communication created by Mr. Rosenberg to develop our emotional intelligence.

What is positive communication?

It helps avoid violence in relationships and invites people to connect with themselves and with others by finding ways to be heard without aggression, because it is concerned with everyone’s point of view.

It allows us to naturally establish trust and a taste for cooperation, because we are no longer against, but with the other.

Positive communication makes it possible to win, but never alone or to the detriment of anyone else.

This training is adapted to the company. However, our experience in this area allows us to propose the following objectives:
