According to the Health and Safety Executives Labour Force Study, 54% of all working days lost in the UK were attributed to work-related stress.

For organisations and their employees to flourish, it’s vital that individuals feel connected, supported and have high quality social relationships. To achieve this, we must remove psychological hazards and promote empathy and compassion in the workplace
Nonviolent communication helps us foster greater connection, understanding and compassion, enabling us to find strategies to meet each other's needs. It’s founded on language and communication skills that strengthen our ability to remain human, even under trying circumstances.
Join Jenny in this talk to explore the practice of nonviolent communication, and how you can use it to build trust, develop better quality relationships and resolve conflicts.
