"Miracles can happen when we can keep our consciousness away from analyzing and classifying one another." --Marshall Rosenberg

Thom Bond: Changing the Conversation with NVC

In 2002 Thom Bond was a successful environmental engineer, passionate about designing smart buildings that used alternative energy. Then he chanced upon Marshall Rosenberg's landmark book on Non-Violent Communication. "By the time I read Chapter 1, it hit me that I had found what I was looking for." Thom realized instinctively that he'd come upon a new technology -- one that was human-oriented as opposed to building-oriented, and that would allow for more effective and harmonious use of energy. "I think Marshall Rosenberg's work may be the single most important discovery of the 20th century, his discovery that when we bring our attention to our universal human needs, it changes what we focus on, it changes how we think, and we naturally become more compassionate."
