However, negotiation takes a lot of time, even in cultures where they

‘forgiveness’.

L'histoire du mot communiquer ; la place de l'approche de Marshall B. Rosenberg dans l'univers de la communication ; le processus de Marshall B. Rosenberg en 6 mots : l'intention, l'attention (l'empathie), l'observation, les sentiments, les besoins et la demande. Distinguer savoir-faire de la CNV et savoir-être dans l'esprit du processus CNV. 30% théorie et 70% pratique.

• S’initier et explorer le processus de communication non violente selon l’approche de Marshall B. Rosenberg.
• Prendre conscience des fondements de ses réactions.
• Apprendre à déterminer ce qui, dans la communication, entraîne un enrichissement des relations et ce qui, au contraire, provoque des tensions, de la résistance et même la violence pour apprendre à faire face à une personne agressive (collègue, supérieur hiérarchique, etc.) sans se laisser démonter et utiliser cette occasion pour améliorer la relation avec cette personne; transformer les non-dits et redonner à la frustration son sens constructif pour des dénouements s’appuyant sur l’écoute, dans un esprit de coopération.
• Développer clarté et cohérence par rapport à ce que nous vivons, à ce que nous voulons et à ce que nous disons.
• Exercer l’affirmation de soi et la compréhension de l’autre : pouvoir donner à soi-même et aux autres des rétroactions et des appréciations, et augmenter notre capacité à les recevoir.
• Développer une écoute empathique pour entendre les sentiments et les besoins de l’autre, quel que soit le message qu’il exprime.
