Marshall B. Rosenberg was an American psychologist and mediator, best known for developing Nonviolent Communication (NVC), a method that emphasizes empathetic communication and conflict resolution. His approach encourages individuals to express their feelings and needs clearly while also listening compassionately to others. Rosenberg believed that understanding and compassion could transform how people interact, leading to healthier relationships and communities. His teachings are widely applied in various fields, including education, social justice, and peace initiatives, making communication more constructive and reducing hostility in interpersonal and group dynamics.
