Do you want to learn how *Crucial Conversations* intersects and overlaps with *Nonviolent Communication* and how you can use both to improve your conversations?

Come join us to enhance your communications skills and learn how these two powerful communication frameworks work together to provide you powerful tools for navigating complex conversations!

The group facilitator is a former communications and emotional intelligence trainer and engineering technology leader with years of experience teaching Crucial Conversations to worldwide participants.

**In this interactive workshop, we will explore:**

* **The Intersection of *NVC* and *Crucial Conversations*** \- See where the models align\, where they differ\, and how you can use both to improve your difficult conversations\.
* We will review the *NVC* and *Crucial Conversations* models and then delve into a **mindfulness exercise** followed by **open discussion** related to these two models.

**Our group will repeatedly focus on:**

* ***The Mindfulness Connection***: This is where we go deeper. We'll discuss how simple mindfulness and meditation practices create a crucial "gap" between stimulus and response. This space is where you gain the power to choose your story, manage your emotions, and act with intention.
* ***Making Conscious Contact***: The ultimate goal is to use these communication frameworks not as a rigid scripts, but as a flashlight to illuminate our inner world. By becoming aware of this process, we can build a more conscious, effective, and authentic relationship with ourselves and others.

**What to bring:**

Just bring an open mind and a notebook! While this session is based on concepts from *Nonviolent Communication* and *Crucial Conversations*, owning a copy is helpful but not required to participate fully and gain valuable insights.

**Our Agenda:**

* 10:30am - 11:30am : Welcome, introductions, and an interactive review of the *Nonviolent Communication* and *Crucial Conversations* models.
* 11:30am to 12:30pm: A mindfulness exercise led by one of our group peers followed by a facilitated group discussion and 'practice lab' where we can apply these concepts to real-world scenarios in a safe and supportive space.

Join us for our *fourth* meeting! It’s going to be an insightful, fun, and connecting experience designed to give you practical tools you can use immediately. We can’t wait to see you there!
