The Verbal Judo Institute

The Verbal Judo Institute is an organization dedicated to teaching effective communication and conflict resolution skills. It focuses on helping individuals, especially those in law enforcement, customer service, and public safety, handle difficult conversations calmly and assertively. The training emphasizes listening, empathy, and strategic language to de-escalate tense situations, enabling better cooperation and safety. Founded by Dr. George Thompson, the institute aims to promote respectful dialogue and reduce misunderstandings, ultimately improving interpersonal interactions in high-stakes environments.
