Vesna Lorenc – CNVC Certified Trainer, DEIB Consultant, Intercultural and Business Trainer, ICF PCC Coach, NVC Mediator, Author.
With over 25 years of experience in international environments, I combine the rigor of professional expertise with a deep commitment to the transformative power of human connection. As a CNVC Certified Trainer, DEIB Consultant, and Coach, I facilitate communication processes that foster inclusion, compassionate leadership, and collaborative growth. My approach integrates Nonviolent Communication (NVC) with coaching, embodiment, dancing, and somatic work, creating spaces for both professional and personal transformation. My approach is grounded in deep psychological knowledge, spiritual awareness, and a commitment to helping others access their inner wisdom through compassionate communication, movement, and connection.
Professional Expertise:
Throughout my career, I’ve worked across diverse sectors, from executive teams in international corporations to NGOs and entrepreneurship organizations. I specialize in leadership development, guiding leaders to cultivate empathy and inclusion using NVC and coaching practices to build stronger, more connected teams. In Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB), my work focuses on fostering respect, understanding, and collaboration across cultures and identities. I am also experienced in navigating difficult conversations and mediating conflicts in professional settings, helping teams resolve disputes through compassionate dialogue.
Intercultural Communication is another area of focus, where I offer a global perspective, working fluently in Polish, English, Russian, and Serbian. I help teams enhance their communication across cultural environments. Additionally, my training incorporates stress management and wellbeing, with a focus on stress reduction and fostering wellbeing through appreciation, self-compassion, and mindfulness. This holistic approach is designed to support both professional effectiveness and personal growth, creating a balanced and compassionate workplace.
A Journey of Transformation:
Born in the former Yugoslavia, my path to NVC was shaped by the profound impact of the Balkan conflicts. Witnessing the complexities of human relationships during times of turmoil, I felt a deep calling to bridge divides and foster peace. Early in my career as a trainer and business coach, I sensed a missing element—something deeper and more spiritual that I sought to integrate into my work. This quest led me to Nonviolent Communication, which became the foundation of my professional and personal evolution.
Over the years, I have evolved from a manager and business trainer to a guide for deep transformation. I now focus on co-creating environments where people can truly be seen, heard, and understood. I help individuals and organizations transition from transactional relationships to those rooted in empathy, trust, and shared growth. In these spaces, individuals can explore their vulnerabilities, discover their inner strengths, and transform old patterns into opportunities for healing and connection.
Publications:
I am passionate about sharing my knowledge through writing, with my books offering practical insights into how NVC can be applied in various life contexts. My publications include Alphabet of Empathy – Nonviolent Communication in Practice (1st ed. 2019, 2nd ed. 2023), Meet Me Halfway – A Practical Guide for Intercultural Couples (published in 4 languages, 2020), and Conflict – Respect – Agreement: Nonviolent Communication in Business Practice (2022). These works serve as resources for individuals and organizations seeking to foster deeper connections and collaborative communication.
A Modern Witch in a Sacred Space:
I often refer to myself as a modern witch, in touch with ancient wisdom and the rhythms of the earth. My work is about more than just communication—it’s about creating rituals of connection, transformation, and healing. Whether I’m working with teams in the corporate world, coaching individuals, or leading retreats, I strive to be a space keeper for deep spiritual connection. I believe that in these sacred spaces, we can transform our lives, our relationships, and ultimately, the world around us.
Looking Ahead:
As I continue to grow on this path, my vision remains focused on co-creating spaces where empathy and embodied awareness transform individuals and communities. I invite those who work with me to join in this journey of spiritual discovery, self-connection, and co-creation. Together, we can explore the magic of human connection, the alchemy of transformation, and the power of living in alignment with our deepest values.
My Vision:
In my work, I blend professionalism with a deep transformational approach. I help organizations and individuals create spaces where authentic human connection can flourish. I believe in the power of communication not only to solve problems but to transform lives, create unity, and foster a sense of belonging in a world that often feels fragmented. As I continue this journey, my vision remains clear: to offer spaces where empathy, embodiment, and spiritual awareness can transform the way we communicate and live together. I invite those who work with me to join in this exploration, where we not only solve challenges but also create pathways for deep healing, growth, and collective transformation.
“My mission is to awaken the power of empathy and human connection in every space I enter. Through NVC trainings, transformative retreats, deep-dive coaching, and mediation, I guide individuals and teams to turn conflict into connection and build bridges across differences. I am committed to fostering inclusivity, equity, and belonging in every interaction. Whether we’re working together in a group, one-on-one, or in the immersive setting of a retreat, my goal is to help you communicate with clarity, navigate challenges with compassion, and create relationships that contribute to lasting social change, being not just functional but deeply meaningful”
