NVC at Work – NVC for Connection, Creativity and Wellbeing

Embodied Nonviolent Communication for the Whole of Working Life

I believe work is one of the places we most need real connection — and one of the places it’s easiest to lose. Whether you’re leading a team, working from a kitchen table on your own, or holding a caseload of other people’s problems, the quality of your working life comes down to how well you can stay present, creative, and in genuine relationship, even under pressure.

In my experience, this isn’t just about handling conflict better, though it does that too. It’s about bringing more of yourself to work: your honesty, your care, your capacity to think clearly instead of just react. I’ve spent years teaching Nonviolent Communication and Embodied Relational Presence inside organisations including the NHS, Google, Microsoft, and Cambridge University, and as a guest lecturer at the Møller Institute — this course distils what I’ve learned into six weeks for anyone who wants their working relationships, and their working self, to feel more alive.

Why This Course, Why Now

• Enterprise-Tested — I’ve delivered this same grounding inside the NHS, Google, Microsoft, and Cambridge University; now I’m opening it up to individuals
• Beyond Conflict — I designed this course around connection, creativity, and wellbeing, not just difficult conversations; NVC is as much about how you relate to yourself as to others
• Crisis-Grade Presence — shaped by my years as a Samaritans volunteer and front-line environmental mediation work under real pressure
• Self-Care Included — I’ve built in real space for self-empathy, boundaries, and recognising your own needs, especially if you’re working alone or often feel overlooked
• 35+ Years of Combined Experience — I’m a CNVC Certified Trainer, BFA Certified Focusing Teacher, and former Associate Mindfulness Teacher at Cambridge University
• Built for a Working Week — six lunchtime-friendly Zoom sessions, designed to fit around real working life, not around a retreat
