Welcome to Cuppa 37 of 40. In this episode of the 40 for Tea, host Rachel Allan invites you to a lively conversation with NNI dialogues Jonelle Naudé and Weibke Renner. We dive straight into tea, crossing divides and removing the charge from power words.
These powerhouse women are firm believers in the power of facilitated, genuine communication and the transformative role of empathy in resolving conflicts. At the heart of their philosophy lies the knowledge that when people's voices are truly heard, a space for understanding and new solutions are created. NNI dialogue is a systems based methodology born through working in post apartheid South Africa. Tangible change is measured through 3 specific steps.
We are challenged to question the dominating focus on the "why am I right?" mindset, which often hinders progress. Instead, we are encouraged to consider that multiple truths bring resilience to a system, fear as a protector and perhaps the emotions we feel don't always belong to us.
We celebrate what it is to be human, are offered valuable perspectives on how to get unstuck in relationships, teams and in life events. As we ask the question "how do we be with complexity and move forward together?"
There's also a bit of energetic plumbing!
So grab your cuppa and let's dive in together.
