Develop important skills to build a nurturing environment that is enriching and conducive to personal and professional growth. This program will lay the foundation for building skills of self-awareness and empathetic communication.

Program Overview

In the professional world, effective communication is not just about clarity—it is about fostering collaboration, trust, and influence. Leaders and managers constantly face high-stakes situations where the ability to communicate empathetically can be the difference between conflict and collaboration, disengagement and motivation, or failure and innovation.

This program leverages Marshall Rosenberg’s Nonviolent Communication (NVC) framework to equip participants with practical tools to:

– Navigate complex workplace dynamics.
– Resolve conflicts constructively.
– Enhance leadership presence by balancing empathy with assertiveness.
– Communicate in ways that honor both organizational goals and human needs.

By linking NVC to business contexts (negotiations, team dynamics, performance feedback, stakeholder management), the course builds competencies essential for effective leadership and organizational success.

Compassionate leadership is often quoted as a desired quality in a leader, and one powerful way to build a culture rooted in compassion is through empathetic communication. It is often said that “People don’t quit jobs, they leave bad bosses.”  Lack of empathy, connection, and understanding is often the root cause of being labelled a “bad boss”. This manifests itself in the way a manager or a leader communicates with team members, subordinates, peers, and various stakeholders.

The skills learnt in this program can be used effectively in the personal space, too, thus strengthening family bonds.
