You’ll learn how to make clear requests allowing everybody's needs to get met.
In this lesson, Newt will explain in-depth the fourth and last component of NVC: Requests. You will learn the importance of using specific language, so your requests meet your needs, and also elicit full-hearted and enthusiastic responses.
Here are the topics covered in this lesson:
- Example: the couple, Alex and Chris, illustrating what conflicting requests look like.
- The advantages of using actionable language and positive framing.
- The importance of seeking confirmation that the request is being well received.
- Are you making a request or demand? Are you open to a “No” as a response?
- What to do when you hear “no” or “maybe” to a request? What’s the path forward?
- Do you always need to make requests?
- Assignment: checking your language and practice the structure you learned in this lesson.
