Left Unsaid: Cofounder Communication Fundamentals

​This session is where you learn how to say what you have Left Unsaid.

​Sixty minutes, working session, not a talk. We'll cover the fundamentals of cofounder communication using Nonviolent Communication (NVC): how to separate what actually happened from the story you've built around it, how to find the need underneath the complaint, and how to make a request your cofounder can say yes to rather than a demand they have to defend against.

​You'll leave with the first draft of a cofounder codex aka a short written agreement covering how an issue gets raised before it's a crisis, what happens when a conversation goes sideways, and who decides when you can't agree.

​Come with your cofounder or come alone. No prior NVC experience needed. Workshop held in English.

​Led by Magdalena Jensen, cofounder mediator, leadership coach and three-time cofounder. Left Unsaid continues as a private founders' circle from November.

"In a mediation process, Magda helped me and my business partner to identify underlying issues that I was not conscious of. The methodology was very helpful to give each other space to share our perspectives and to reveal sources of conflict." - fintech COO
