SUMMARY:Dialogues for Social Change - Susan Wildin
DESCRIPTION:Susan Wildin MD\, CPC invites you to Dialogues for Social Change \nIn these difficult times\, when everyone seems to be taking sides\, I want to support people working together to separate our perceptions and judgments from our deepest longings. I believe if we act from these longings\, change can happen more effectively and without alienating others. \nTo create this connection to longing and a space of mutual connection and understanding between people across barriers of belief and judgment\, I use a process I call Dialogues for Social Change\, based on the work of Marshall Rosenberg\, Ph.D.\, and Jim and Jori Manske. I will be sharing this process and basics of Nonviolent Communication online in 3 two-hour\, weekly workshops Saturdays September 12\, 19\, and 26\, 2020\, from 1:30-3:30 pm CDT. \nRegistration link

SUMMARY:NVC Fundamentals – Honesty (6 of 8) – Karen Starz
DESCRIPTION:Saturdays\, August 1st to September 26th\, 6-8 pm CT (no session 9/5) \nAn 8-week online learning community facilitated by Karen Starz\, CNVC Certified Trainer \nWhat is it? This is a highly interactive\, discussion-based exploration of Marshall Rosenberg’s book “Nonviolent Communication: a Language of Life\, 3rd Ed.” (Puddle Dancer Press\, 2015). Together\, we will form an online learning community in which we can apply what we’ve read about with real people in real conversation. Reading\, reflection\, and review homework provide participants with the opportunity to make the most of the weekly online interactions\, which will focus on practice and application. This is an excellent foundational workshop for the beginner or a sound refresher for returning practitioners. \nWho is it for? This course is for people who have occasion to communicate with people and want to be able to do so more effectively\, especially in the conversations which are most important to us. The people who will get the most out of the experience are those who read along in advance of each week’s session and come ready and willing to risk trying the things they read about in a real conversation with a real person. \nWhat is unique about this course? Rosenberg’s compassionate communication framework is a powerful tool we can use to make authentic\, heart-to-heart connections. Being heard\, understood\, and accepted is one of the most powerful gifts we can offer one another. It is also a gift that those around us desperately need. This group provides an opportunity to create peace in the world by creating peace within ourselves\, as well as between ourselves and all with whom we speak. \nFor more information or to register: click here

SUMMARY:NVC Fundamentals – Celebration & Open Discussion (8 of 8) – Karen Starz
DESCRIPTION:Saturdays\, August 1st to September 26th\, 6-8 pm CT (no session 9/5) \nAn 8-week online learning community facilitated by Karen Starz\, CNVC Certified Trainer \nWhat is it? This is a highly interactive\, discussion-based exploration of Marshall Rosenberg’s book “Nonviolent Communication: a Language of Life\, 3rd Ed.” (Puddle Dancer Press\, 2015). Together\, we will form an online learning community in which we can apply what we’ve read about with real people in real conversation. Reading\, reflection\, and review homework provide participants with the opportunity to make the most of the weekly online interactions\, which will focus on practice and application. This is an excellent foundational workshop for the beginner or a sound refresher for returning practitioners. \nWho is it for? This course is for people who have occasion to communicate with people and want to be able to do so more effectively\, especially in the conversations which are most important to us. The people who will get the most out of the experience are those who read along in advance of each week’s session and come ready and willing to risk trying the things they read about in a real conversation with a real person. \nWhat is unique about this course? Rosenberg’s compassionate communication framework is a powerful tool we can use to make authentic\, heart-to-heart connections. Being heard\, understood\, and accepted is one of the most powerful gifts we can offer one another. It is also a gift that those around us desperately need. This group provides an opportunity to create peace in the world by creating peace within ourselves\, as well as between ourselves and all with whom we speak. \nFor more information or to register: click here
