Creating Effective Communication

Ask Arlo

In this episode my guest Jordan Dann and I will focus on the System for Analyzing Verbal Communication, or SAVI, developed by Yvonne Agazarian and Anita Simon. SAVi is a communication tool that provides a systematic, objective analysis of what makes conversations succeed or fail. It focuses not on what we say, but on how we say it. SAVI uses a Red/Yellow/Green schema to pinpoint patterns of interaction that will either create the possibility that our message will get through accurately and effectively, or create the possibility that we will be locked in a negative cycle of blame and self-defense. We will discuss the implications of this theory for developing positive interactions in our human relationships.
