Carolyn Davies

Name: Carolyn Davies

Location: London, England

I grew up in Australia and began a career in television in the mid ’90s producing and directing documentary/current affairs programmes for the ABC.

In my work I had so many different relationships to manage; people with different needs and expectations and despite my best intentions it was pretty tough managing the stress, keeping things balanced and moving forward.

In 2004 I discovered Nonviolent Communication and was blown away!  I took it into my next TV job and saw it make a huge difference to the way I approached the people and the demands I faced. Relocating to London in 2005, I continued to Produce and Direct TV programmes for the BBC and ITV, nurturing my NVC skills and in 2014 I became a Certified Trainer with CNVC.

I am passionate about the potential NVC has to transform relationships with ourselves and others. I offer regular public trainings online, in person in London, and I have run training for Hospitals, Businesses, Educational Organisations and Charities.

I have a strong interest in workplace cultures and the benefits of NVC to reduce stress, conflict and to support wellbeing and effectiveness.

I also was very fortunate to have witnessed NVC in action in Nepal.  Below is a link to the one-hour documentary I made showing NVC being used in a restorative dialogue, in post armed conflict Nepal: https://youtu.be/RqA2OydkXgg
