About Julia Shen
Hi, I’m Julia—a Certified Nonviolent Communication (NVC) Trainer with The Center for Nonviolent Communication, as well as a Mediator and Coach. My work is mainly based on the principles of NVC, and I specialize in helping individuals, teams, and organizations strengthen relationships, resolve conflicts, and create workplace cultures built on trust, empathy, and collaboration.​
With a background in tech program management, I understand firsthand the complexities of workplace dynamics. Balancing team morale, performance expectations, and business objectives isn’t always easy—especially when communication breaks down. That’s why I’m passionate about equipping leaders and teams with practical, needs-based communication skills that enhance collaboration, reduce friction, and improve overall performance.
​
I offer customized workshops, 1-on-1 coaching, and mediation to help organizations build stronger, more connected, and high-performing teams. Whether you aim to improve communication flow, mediate team tensions and conflicts, strengthen leadership-employee relationships, build strong customer connections, or navigate difficult decisions with empathetic communication to prevent negative outcomes, I provide tailored solutions to meet your specific needs.
If you're looking to enhance collaboration and communication in your workplace, let's talk. I'd love to learn about your team's unique challenges and design an approach that supports both your people and business goals.
