Ann Begler
High Conflict Mediation and Ethics (1/30/12)
Ann Begler
Working with high conflict people requires skill that goes well beyond facilitating a conversation. Some mediators do it well and some should never try.

Conflict Resolution in the Holy Lands (4/11/11)
John Shaffer
I recently returned from a conflict resolution training of unusual depth and dimension. It is an experience I wish for all my family and friends, co-workers and neighbors. I say “it is” because the journey this training is a part of is not over; in fact, I’d say it has hardly begun.   2 Comments

Transparent Mediation: Giving Away Our Strategies (4/03/11)
Alan E. Gross
Mediators often offer classes that introduce and practice skills designed to convert disputes into opportunities for understanding and change. However, during meetings convened to address specific disputes, these same mediators rarely share or explain the strategies that they advocate in trainings. Failure to include training elements may miss an opportunity to benefit the parties and to facilitate acquisition of effective skills.   3 Comments

Someone I know works for a large retail corporation, and has been suffering fears of being fired recently. As he talks about his concerns, he speaks with anger and resignation about how other people tell him that he is being targeted to be fired and how unfair his manager is in his criticisms. As a friend, I engaged him in a dialogue about his work and the criticisms the manager was offering and asked for his objective view about the specific criticisms. It turned out that there were areas in which he thought he could improve.
