A 2011 NVCTI WORKSHOP OFFERING:

CREATING WORKPLACES WHERE PEOPLE THRIVE:

SUCCESSFULLY IMPLEMENTING NEEDS-BASED SYSTEMIC CHANGE IN BUSINESSES AND NON-PROFITS
using the processes of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and Dynamic Governance (DG)
A Six-Day Intensive
  • 13 - 20 November 2011
  • OBERSTDORF, Germany
    at Waldhotel am Christlesee - NEW LOCATION!
  • Facilitator: Gregg Kendrick
  • Language: English

This is not your typical NVC workshop. Grounded in the "living energy of needs," this workshop offers a unique experience of NVC where you will experience both the gentleness of compassion and empathy AND the fierceness of purpose and clarity. We will introduce you to a new level of needs, the needs of the WE, which is the heart of any living organization.

This is also not your typical business workshop. The learning experience is rich with somatic/"whole body" exercises, percussion beats, creative expressions of your deepest potential, and daily rememberings. We want you to experience the "power" within "power-with" leadership.

And we also have a depth of structure and content to give you pragmatic tools to transform your real-world workplace situations: a 120-page Participants' Manual, role plays, a business simulation, small affinity groups, sociocratic governance structures, and community meetings. (more >> Overview of training ...)

This six-day course can be applied towards the minimum of 50 days required (including an International Intensive Training - IIT) as part of the process for CNVC Certification as a Trainer in Nonviolent Communication. It does not alone qualify participants for certification.

NEW! We've heard from many of you who have already attended a "Creating Workplaces Where People Thrive" (CWWPT) workshop, and who want to come back for more … more inspiration, more skills development, more enlivening transformation energy. Now we've added one more reason for you to consider returning: to expand your learning by having a role on the Event Support Team during the workshop. (more >>)

  • NEW LOCATION!

The original venue for this event, Seehotel Schwalten in Seeg, was unexpectedly no longer able to host our event. So we located a new venue about 50 km south of Seeg nestled in the Oberstdorfer Mountains. The venue is located in a peaceful and picturesque natural setting including a small lake and river. The hotel features modern facilities with spacious rooms, a spa and sauna area, and there are paths and mountain trails for walking, hiking and jogging starting at the front door of the hotel.
