In this workshop, we'll explore expanding needs into full sentences and finding the “sweet spot” between the “why” and the “how”. You can use these skills to resolve disagreements, create more shared understanding, or just bring more flow and joy to your work and collaboration with others.
Date & Time:
Contact: If you have any questions, please, send a message to: contact@empathiceurope.com
Location: Online via Zoom (You will receive a link after registration)
How is this useful?
- When we learn to listen for needs within strategies, our main goal is usually to create a sense of connection.
- What happens when we have a sense of connection, but we are still in disagreement?
- How can a deeper understanding of people’s needs help us find solutions or make decisions that work for everyone?
- NVC offers a list of universal human needs to connect us with our shared humanity, but how can these single words help us decide what to do together?
Who is this for?
Everyone is welcome. Some experience with guessing needs using the NVC needs list would be helpful.

About Magda & Roni
Magda Barańska
I feel a deep calling to contribute to making decisions that work for everyone because I see how much more alive and effective groups become when everyone’s needs matter. I believe humans intrinsically enjoy finding solutions that care for everyone’s needs and what gets in the way are unsupportive beliefs and lack of skills. I’m passionate about inspiring and supporting transformation of such beliefs and teaching the skills that make interdependent collaboration possible. I enjoy offering softness and acceptance to free up the energy that gets stuck in self-judgments and self-doubts. When facilitating I bring faith that integration is possible and trust in the wisdom and creativity of a group. It gives me great joy to contribute to co-creation through deep listening to everything that is shared and through the integration of dissent and concerns. I aim for each encounter and decision in my life to become an example of the change I want to see in the world. My ongoing sources of learning include collaborating in diverse projects, parenting and inner transformation.

I dedicate my energy to accelerating the global shift toward decisions that care for all life. I spend most of my time developing, teaching, and facilitating decision-making processes and interdependent systems. I focus on creating sustainable change that gradually integrates innovative practices.
I’m currently most passionate about supporting organizations and communities in cultivating a culture where everyone’s needs matter. I enjoy facilitating highly controversial and polarized decisions where I can contribute my integration skills to find creative solutions that work for everyone. I draw on gift economy principles to keep my work sustainable and prioritize the needs of people with less access to resources.
My life journey includes two decades of consulting focused on transforming collaboration practices. I also have a degree in Psychology, Sociology, and Gender Studies.
