From Tension to Interaction
Non Violent Communication to process tensions in our daily work and conflicts in the organization
Tensions and conflicts are part of collaboration
Tensions can be defined as gaps between the current state and the desired state.
We all encounter tensions in our daily work, gaps between what is currently happening and where we want to be. Sometimes it's a product of our reality and sometimes our different points of view and and opinions are generating these gaps. Either way, tensions are there.
In the absence of ways to process our tensions in a healthy and constructive way, they can interfere with taking relevant decisions, paralyze us from moving forward, influence our relationships and even develop into real conflicts.Our ability to cooperate together for the shared purpose increases immensely by having a method to support us.
NVC offers a clear model which helps us observe into what's alive in each and every one of us, with respect to a certain tension. It is a fresh form of looking at our daily interactions and being aware of our needs and the the needs of others, and then finding an effective way to move forward with our collective wisdom.
NVC offers the opportunity to have really honest and meaningful conversations, with positive self-expression and empathic listening capabilities. This has the potential to meet as many needs as possible and help our collaboration to be smooth, meaningful and smarter.
NVC is especially effective for teams working with Holacracy and Sociocracy, as it provides a solid foundation that supports self-managed work.
Non Violent Communication (NVC) allows us to experience tensions in a fresh way, work with them to make smarter decisions and grow as individuals and teams.

Hi, I'm Inbar.
For about 20 years I worked in Israeli high-tech in a variety of roles, from small companies to big corporations. A Holacracy and Sociocracy practitioner, Facilitator and coach.
One of the key things that drive my work is the passion to help people find the way for optimal cooperation, and in my opinion NVC is an essential and inseparable part of that.
