The Introductory "Powerful Non-Defensive Communication" workshop provides information on how our traditional communication model has been based on the "rules of war" and thus causes people to get defensive easily and engage in needless power struggle. We will examine the six typical defensive modes people use daily. We will discuss how common ways of asking questions, making statements, and giving predictions actually create and accelerate conflict. This can cause us to become controlling and manipulative, even when we have good intentions.
