Miki Kashtan is a “practical visionary”, exploring the application of the principles and tools of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) to social transformation. She is an author, certified NVC trainer, and co-founder of Bay Area NVC (baynvc.org). Miki teaches and works with organizations, visionary leaders, activists, and others to support the transition to a world that works for all.
She addresses the question of “What Could Possibly Go Right?” with thoughts including:
That having big practical problems to face will bring us together, against our conditioning towards “scarcity, separation and powerlessness” That finding the noncontroversial “essential nugget” of agreed principles will create goodwill between opposing sides and pave a way to find solutions.That “if you come to a togetherness about solving a problem, it doesn't matter what your opinion is any longer because you know that you have to come up with a solution that isn't going to work only for you.”That collective wisdom will enable us to solve big problems, especially through mutual influencing. “I hear what's important to you. I don't yet know how to do it, but I now care about it and I'm changed.”Resources
