A better humanity through better interpersonal communication
Interpersonal communication is the “oil in the human machine”. Even 70,000 years after the linguistic revolution, it seems our machine still needs more oil. My life is dedicated to the improvement of our ability to communicate with each other and as a result fully realize our potential: as individuals, organizations and as a species. I have created this blog in order to share with you insights, resources, tools and methodologies. Hope you find this useful.
A teacher, first and foremost, I am most passionate about the fields of Interpersonal Communication, Persuasion and Influence Without Authority.
Following a few life-altering years as a competitive debater and captain of my college debate club (The Interdisciplinary College), I decided to dedicate my life to the study of these fields so that I may live a happy and productive life dedicated to helping others do the same. I am a strong believer in doing what you love while doing good in the world and try to incorporate these ideals into every workshop I give.
I am the proud co-founder of VAYOMAR - The Power of Being Heard, along with my friends and partners: Gur Braslavi and Ran Michaelis. Together, we strive to bring our insights, methodologies and tools to as many people around the world, from young students to adults.
I hold a BA in Government and Diplomacy studies and an MA in Counter-Terrorism and Homeland Security. And of course... I am a big believer in the "theory of fun" and love to find ways of developing myself through games. My purpose is to promote a better humanity through better interpersonal communications. I invite you to join us and become part of this massive transformative purpose.
Sincerely,
Ariel Halevi
