Nonviolent Communication Part 1 Marshall Rosenberg

Marshall Rosenberg created Nonviolent Communication and is Founder and Director of Educational Services for the Center for Nonviolent Communication, an international non-profit organization based in California.

Dr Rosenberg talks about Teilhard de Chardin's theories of human evolution which sought to return to a more natural way - one where no-one advances at the expense of another. He speaks of his own experiences working with Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and how enriching the lives of others is the most rewarding work mankind can engage in.

Marshall Rosenberg is so very cool.

Marshall, thank you so much for developing violent free communication!

Around one year ago I first got in contact with it. It was a really mind opening and mind blowing experience. After I was thinking a lot about it and changed my way of thinking about people I am now slowly integrating violent free communication into my life - and its huge!

There is no good or bad, just consequences for our actions.

This is an excellent summary of the idea behind Marshall's way of communicating, for example, getting people away from talking about the Bible or the Koran and instead to talking about their natural human needs.

A suggestion for those using NVC: Try to avoid using terms like "alive within you"; "power over"; "stay present". They may confuse some people. Using other terms can help more people worldwide understand the central message of NVC.

Am I the only one who can't help but think this guy is the Earthly Version of Spoc?

[Dave Dawson]

I agree essentially. I would say though that people turn out like that because of how they are raised, their environment ultimately. I agree that some people get to the point of sadism unfortunately. Also, this is strong material. I still believe it's valuable stuff. It could help probably so many people, but not everyone is capable of being non-emotional. We just can't make everyone see reason or empathy.

3:26 assumptions. Living in small groups is equally a ground for power strugles and mind games...

What about the needs of murderers, rapists and pedophiles?

Rosenberg's theories are marvellous but you can't make them absolute. Some people are just hellbent on harming people, and they enjoy harming people. They do not care for reason and the only language they understand is violence. It may be hard to wrap your mind around it, but once you've met them you know that these people are real, beyond redemption and utterly terrifying.

Thank you for sharing your insights, experiences concerning non violent communication.

this is humanity at its best

An idiot is someone with an IQ of less than 20. I don't think anybody who can make a youtube comment has that handicap. Where is good there is also bad, most inherit both, so there is an understanding for both human sides. We all aim for our well-being. Cheer up dudes. I hope your needs get met and you learn something of this great man who has not enough recognition for his potential contribution to World Peace. :-)

[BobLoblaw1985]

You're an idiot. Of course there is bad.

[TheMrHellacool]

I've been constantly question the structure that we live in. Your Nonviolent Communication is pretty much answered it all. Thanks!
