==Contribution, John Wiley, 2001 Concepts List==
 
In case it might be of interest, here's a handout I prepared for a non-credit NVC college class in 2001. At that time I was interested in discovering implicit assumptions within the NVC process, and this list was my first attempt to combine those with major explicit concepts.  Some items make general reference to a body of work or subject area, but not specific citations.  I haven't reviewed this since then and it probably contains lots of irrelevant stuff, so feel free to delete it if not useful.

===[[Underlying Concepts of Compassionate Communication]]===
:by John Wiley, 2001
 
  
A. All people are inherently compassionate, but most have been trained in ways that interfere with it.
 
: Carl Rogers, altruism, heroism, transformational mediation
 
  
B. All people share a small set of core fundamental Needs.
+
== Previous NVC Research Circle Meeting ==
: Hierarchy of needs, interpersonal vs. intrapersonal priority of needs
 
  
C. Connection and self-actualization are fundamental human Needs, and both involve other people.
 
: Philosophical and spiritual factors
 
  
D. Needs come into conflict when they are unclear to either party.
+
'''[[NVC Research March 08 Meeting]]''' Friday, March 7, 2008
: Any clarification of Needs is beneficial to the connection
 
  
E. We are all equal, as is the importance of our Needs.
+
'''[[NVC Research November 07 Meeting]]''' Friday, November 9, 2007
: Humanitarian principles
 
  
F. We are each responsible for the origins of our own Feelings.
+
'''[[NVC Research December Meeting]]''' Friday, December 8, 2006
: Others can be no more than a stimulus for how we feel
 
  
G. We are each responsible for the expression and meeting of our own Needs.
+
'''[[NVC Research November Meeting]]''' Friday, November 3, 2006
: Projection or transferrence of responsibility damages individuals and relationships
 
  
H. Problems arise from ineffective (tragic) strategies for expressing and meeting Needs.
+
== Next NVC Research Circle Meeting ==
: Taking responsibility for meeting our own Needs is the first step in NVC
 
 
 
I. Communication is a process.
 
: Clarity arises from dialog focused on building connection
 
 
 
J. The NVC process shifts attention from our thinking, to what's alive in our hearts.
 
: Natural progression: Observations ð Feelings ð Needs ð Requests
 
 
 
K. NVC reframes our perceptions and behavior by placing focus on Feelings and Needs via questions.
 
: Active Listening or paraphrasing is not NVC, questions vs. assumptions
 
 
 
L. Judgment, guilt, duty, blame and shame all lead to disconnection and violence between people.
 
: Research on Shame/Rage spiral, benefits vs. costs of shame, high costs of coercion
 
 
 
M. Confusing our thoughts & strategies with Observations, Feelings and Needs leads to pain and conflict.
 
: Thinking who is what, deciding what people deserve, strategies based on inequality
 
 
 
N. Changing strongly reinforced learned behavior requires considerable motivation, time and practice.
 
: Alternative is conflict, violence and ultimately the end of civilization
 
 
 
O. "No" in response to an NVC Request is usually the most fruitful response.
 
: No means the other person isn't coerced and we/they aren't clear on Needs
 
 
 
P. Words are not required for communication, thus Intention is key to effective NVC.
 
: Nonverbal communication is pervasive & influential, Intention guides us & influences others
 
 
 
Q. All principles of NVC apply to interpersonal and intrapersonal communications.
 
: Practicing first on self leads to compassion for others
 
 
 
R. NVC Empathy is a process of clarifying Feelings and Needs via NVC dialog.
 
: Other forms of empathy may lead to conflict
 
 
 
S. Empathy is often required first for ourselves, before we have the capacity for giving it to others.
 
: Clarity on own Feelings & Needs enables "giving from the heart"
 
 
 
T. People progress from focus on rules and authority, to rebellion and on to interdependence.
 
: Harvey, submit or rebel vs. equality and abstraction
 
 
 
U. Language influences our perception and behavior.
 
: "I feel that..." or "I feel you..." are not Feelings, words that imply blame or judgment
 
  
V. Vulnerability and appreciation are important in building connections between people.
