On Video:

Court vs. Mediation
(1:28) Glenn expresses concern about the courts using ADR in their own image and not giving parties real choice. This is drawing power away from the field.

Mediator Must Evolve With Process
(1:76) Mediation is a lot like growing a garden. The mediator must evolve with the parties and not impose his way of thinking. Mediator must ask lots of questions to move the parties forward.

Mediators Do Not Eliminate Differences
(1:14) Glenn believes that the role of the mediator is to work with the parties to design a process that creates an opportunity to have a conversation about their differences.

Steering From Behind
(:80) Glenn Sigurdson talks about the importance of slowing down, especially at the beginning of a mediation. He calls this steering from behind. The slower you go at the beginning the faster you will go at the end.

Certification For Process As Old As Civilization
(3:37) Glenn Sigurdson shares his conflicted feelings about the ongoing debate in the field about certification. Intermediaries exist in every culture; training and certification are important and he has concerns about their purpose and intention.


Helping People Change Their Perspectives
(:98) Glenn Sigurdson talks about the notion of perception and how people's perceptions evolve and change over time and the role of the mediator is to create a safe environment for that to happen.

Mediation Is A Field
(:91) Glenn believes mediation is a field. He says mediators build processes for problems not the other way around which is what lawyers must do in the court system.
