Using human needs-based frameworks and processes, such as [Needs-Based Communication (NVC™)](https://www.greggkendrick.com/post/what-is-needs-based-communication), the [Cultural Transformation Tools™](https://www.greggkendrick.com/bvc) of Barrett Values Centre, or the [Sociocratic Circle Method](https://www.greggkendrick.com/post/what-is-the-sociocratic-circle-method-scm), he supports conscious leaders to create conscious cultures where people and purpose matter. He teaches skill sets and a mindset that inspire, empower and build trust among people. **Gregg's work focuses on both leadership development through training and coaching as well as full-scale cultural transformation projects** that include assessments, facilitated conversations, and supported implementation.

His clients include the University of Virginia, Toyota, Dancing Classrooms, Electronic Controls Design, NCIS, Kent State University, PLICO, Deschutes County Health Services, and Bosch. ***Special note in Aug 2024**:* After almost three decades of doing my “NVC in Business” work mostly INSIDE workplaces, I am now emerging and want to shine the light on this work to a broader audience including the NVC community, especially for NVC Certification Candidates. Of particular note is the *[recent evolution](https://www.greggkendrick.com/post/a-new-evolution-of-the-conscious-leader-program)* of the ***[Conscious Leader Program](https://www.greggkendrick.com/conscious-leader-program)*** that harvests the wisdom and learnings over the last three decades, and it is now available as a public offering. ***This program would be an ideal development program for NVC Certification Candidates and others that are interested in business applications of NVC.*** More details on Gregg's offerings: - **[Learn with Gregg](https://www.greggkendrick.com/learn-with-gregg)** - **[Conscious Leader Program](https://www.greggkendrick.com/conscious-leader-program)** - **[The Conscious Leader blog](https://www.greggkendrick.com/the-conscious-leader)** **Outside of work**, Gregg enjoys using his carpentry and woodworking skills to renovate and preserve his 100-year-old home. A labor of love! For sheer fun, he loves sailing in the Chesapeake Bay or paddleboarding on local lakes with friends. He has lived in Charlottesville, Virginia, for more than 30 years with his wife, Lisa, with whom he has had the joy to raise three daughters. **[Learn more about Gregg](https://www.greggkendrick.com/meet-gregg)** Share this page: - [](mailto:?body=Hi%20check%20out%20this%20trainer%21&subject=Check%20out%20this%20Certified%20Trainer%20with%20the%20Center%20for%20Nonviolent%20Communication%21) - [](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnvc.org%2Ftrainers%2Fgregg-kendrick "Share on Facebook") - [](https://api.whatsapp.com/send?text=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnvc.org%2Ftrainers%2Fgregg-kendrick "Share on Whatsapp") - [](https://x.com/intent/post?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnvc.org%2Ftrainers%2Fgregg-kendrick&text= "Share on Twitter") - [](https://www.linkedin.com/sharing/share-offsite/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnvc.org%2Ftrainers%2Fgregg-kendrick "Share on Linkedin") - [](http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnvc.org%2Ftrainers%2Fgregg-kendrick "share on Pinterest") ### TRAINING FOCUS: - Business [ Trainer's Website ](http://www.greggkendrick.com) [ LINKEDIN PROFILE ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregg-kendrick/) # Contact Gregg Kendrick First name \* Last name \* Email Address \* Country \* United States Your Message \* Turnstile \* ![](https://www.cnvc.org/templates/yootheme/assets/images/consent_placeholder_map.svg) ![](https://www.cnvc.org/templates/yootheme/assets/images/consent_icon_openstreetmap.svg)OpenStreetMap service required to load this map. ![](https://www.cnvc.org/templates/yootheme/assets/images/consent_icon_openstreetmap.svg)OpenStreetMap service required to load this map.
