Activity 3.1 | Communicating with Integrity
Nonviolent Communication in Practice
Watch this YouTube video that introduces the foundations of nonviolent communication (Florida Institute for Child Welfare, 2021).
After watching the video, read the case study in Focus on Ethics: A Difficult Working Relationship, The Response (Feeney & Freeman, 2015). This reading presents a workplace case study, a range of responses, and a framework for navigating ethical conflict. While based on an American code of ethics, the piece offers practical insights that complement the ECEBC Code of Ethics, helping you consider how you might engage in ethical leadership when communication is challenging. These skills are particularly relevant as you continue practicing more conscious, collaborative, and equitable approaches to communication in your role.
