asked by officefan on November 26, 2006 2:48 AM
What if you could defuse tension and create accord in even the most volatile situations—just by changing the way you spoke? Over the past 35 years, Marshall Rosenberg has done just that, peacefully resolving conflicts in families, schools, businesses, and governments in 30 countries on 5 continents. On Nonviolent Communication, this renowned peacemaker presents his complete system for speaking our deepest truths ... addressing our unrecognized needs and emotions ... and honoring those same concerns in others. With this adaptation of the bestselling book of the same title, Marshall Rosenberg teaches in his own words:
• Observations, feelings, needs, and requests: how to apply the four-step process of Nonviolent CommunicationSM to every dialogue we engage in
• Overcoming the blocks to compassion—and opening to our natural desire to enrich the lives of those around us
• How to use empathy to safely confront anger, fear, and other powerful emotions
Here is a definitive audio training workshop on Marshall Rosenberg's proven methods for "resolving the unresolvable" through Nonviolent Communication.

Very good. Very logical: Deceptively simplified by Dr. Rosenberg, but this "simplification" is the beauty of the discipline itself: Mr. Rosenberg allows access to success of his teachings in a way that is accessible even to the skeptic --- skepticism being the failure of the individual to successfully navigate the most profound communication outside of knowing oneself --- reaching out to know the other.

I read the book and liked it so much I bought the tapes for my dad. They are definalty just as good as the book. It can show more understanding and ways of communicating with people than my psychology degree has taught me.
I would recommend this to anyone.

Marshall Rosenberg has given me one of the greatest gifts I have ever received: the ability to hear past the spoken word to find the root - the underlying needs and feelings.
I used to run away from criticism and confrontation because I was only able to hear the judgements that were spoken. Marshall taught me to hear the unmet needs and feelings behind those judgements. And I now understand that all such judgements are tragic expressions of our unmet needs.
Now I can hear criticism for what it is - an opportunity to make life more wonderful for the other person.
Learning NVC and, more importantly, learning to see the world in terms of needs and feelings has transformed my relationships with strangers and loved ones alike. In fact, NVC shows how such a distinction is much less concrete than we think it is!
I am grateful to Marshall for his incredible and life changing work.

A very simple and basic approach to communicating with anyone and everyone! Helps to build/restore self-peace through recognizing our shared needs. These are the very needs that allow us to give empathy and spirtually connect!
