NVC-plus is a self-controlling process. This means that a team steers itself. Therefore, the NVC-plus coach is not so much an important figure as a helpful one. In management, "agile" methods are just gaining acceptance, such as Scrum, Kanban and the like. Conventional agile methods promote self-control by providing concrete flow structures for the work process. NVC-plus goes further. With NVC-plus you can use Scrum, 5s, Six Sigma, VSM, Design Thinking, ToC etc as a tool as long as the self-directing team finds it useful. An NVC-plus coach has a similar role as a Scrum master in with Scrum. He takes a special role and keeps an eye on both the process quality and the team members from. There may be an internal NVC-plus coach on the team who takes care of everyone and everything all around, like a good servant, so that the others can work well. However, it is equally possible for an external NVC-plus coach to promote performance in the sense of self-direction. This is someone who is called in from the outside and who is not really part of the performance team. This is a fairly simple job, as one's only role is to support the team's self-direction efforts through comments, tips, and changes. The NVC-plus coach should not take himself too seriously and, above all, should not want to take the helm into his own hands. The team decides whether and how it wants to follow the external coach's hints.

Study this website, take the online course with an NVC-plus partner, and start implementing NVC-plus or elements of NVC-plus in your team. Get the book, the tool card pad, the power point presentation and the working material. You can start a local practice group. If you find that you enjoy it, you can offer your services to other teams that are unsure and want you in the external position so you can support them. So it's easy to become an NVC-plus coach. The only question you should always ask yourself is whether things are better with you than without you. Stay a learner and believe in yourself. You can sign up yourself, your team, or your practice group as a hotspot in the app. There is no certificate or credential. There's not even really an official title of "NVC-plus Coach" or "NVC-plus Facilitator." So you can call yourself whatever you like. Of course, if you want to work professionally as a coach, you have to comply with all the legal requirements. You don't feel ready yet? That is normal. Start with projects that are at your level. Make sure the teams are doing better with you than without you, and get input from others when things aren't going as expected.

Not all experiences can be optimally classified and evaluated alone. sometimes it takes the experience of others, their knowledge and their view. We try to learn new things, improve and expand through networking. Especially the open video conferences, the mail forum, the live events and the hotspots you can find in the NVC-plus app are our networking strategies. At the live events, we can meet and practice together. That way, we all stay up to date and can continue to grow from your experiences, too. By the way, many of these offerings are free of charge.
