Do you work with people in conflict? Are you looking for a different way to help your clients find the best solution? Through our understanding-based mediation and conflict resolution training programs, we help you to: ►Learn how to work with conflict in a different, deeper way. ►Challenge the traditional terms of conflict that can keep parties and professionals trapped in its grasp—like those of right v. wrong or winning v. losing. ►Understand the power of using conflict constructively. ►Listen in order to develop a multi-layered understanding of the parties, their conflict and of yourself as you support them in working it through. ►Create a safe place for parties to talk about the underlying issues in a productive and constructive manner to reach solutions that work. ►Support disputing parties to make informed decisions together based on a deeper understanding of what is important and meaningful to them. ►Encourage parties to tap into compassion and caring in the face of conflict. ►Empower parties to control the outcome in a meaningful, beneficial way. ►Enhance and enrich your own life as well as the lives of those with whom you are engaged.
