Empathy at home
Creating a culture of empathy begins with us — cultivating spaces where we can show up as our authentic selves. It calls for emotional intelligence, deep listening, and mindful presence. These are the principles I’ve been guiding people in for over three decades. I was trained by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg, the creator of Nonviolent Communication (NVC)
“NVC is a learnable, practical way to bring empathy, honesty, strength, and compassion into our personal and professional relationships.” (NVC-UK)
NVC can support you when:
- You feel frustrated because others aren’t responding as you wish
- You’re longing for a deeper, more meaningful connection in your relationships
- You’re torn between choices and unsure which path to take
- You want to reach an agreement, but struggle to find common ground
- You’re carrying regret, guilt, or shame that weighs on you
- You’re caught in a cycle of judgment or self-criticism
Empower your relationships with compassion, connection, and clarity through NVC

Empathy at work
Research shows that empathy is one of the most important leadership skills. As Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, demonstrated, leading with empathy can transform company culture. He asked his top executives to read Marshall Rosenberg’s Nonviolent Communication, a foundational guide to empathic collaboration, which played a pivotal role in shifting Microsoft’s culture from cutthroat to creative.

Many workplaces offer brief NVC training sessions for their teams – it’s important to understand that a few hours—or even a full day—only scratches the surface. To truly experience the impact of NVC, it needs to be integrated into the day-to-day operations of the organisation. A sustained commitment to training, combined with ongoing practice, is key.
By aligning leadership and management processes such as feedback, decision-making, and conflict resolution with NVC principles, you can cultivate psychological safety, build trust, and foster collaboration. This systemic approach can drive a cultural shift toward empathy, creating a more inclusive and productive workplace.
If you’d like to explore how NVC training and coaching can support your team or organisation, I’d love to talk.
We can discuss NVC Foundation training tailored for the workplace, as well as field-tested methods such as 3 x 3 Empathy™ for Systemic Nonviolent Communication® as Cultural Transformation, developed by Marie R. Miyashiro, PhD, Marshall Rosenberg, and others.
I work online and in person in the City of London, across the UK and internationally.
