Saturday November 16th - Tibet Gate - NVC Practice Group

Hey All,
I’m looking forward to meeting you all for our NVC practice group.
Quick reminder to update your RSVP 24-48 hours in advance or if you are running late, please let me know so that we can get started on time.
I wanted to provide some details as to the format and structure.
Homework for you: think of a conflict that you would like to resolve

Examples:
Interpersonal Conflicts with Partner/Manager/Peer such as using too much social media, too demanding, not understand/empathetic, etc
Ideological conflicts
Territorial Conflicts
At the beginning of the meeting each person will be given a piece of paper to write down their conflict anonymously. We as a group will vote on the conflict to discuss.
For the first 20 minutes we will talk about the feelings and needs of both parties in the conflict. What is the trigger, what their feelings may be, what needs they are trying to get met, what resolution they would like (20 minutes)
The next 20 minutes is expressing these feelings and needs in a role play where 2 people will (hopefully) volunteer to play out the conflict to try to come to resolution. (20 minutes)
Afterwards we will hear from the volunteers on their experience during this practice. We will also have a dialogue on the experience of the observers on how they felt witnessing the conversation (20 minutes)
If we have time and there is a desire, we can do this again with a new conflict.
Let me know if you have questions. See you all Saturday
