Webinar: Generating Creative Option – Sept. 20, 2017

Time: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
Location: Online, Free
The facilitative style of mediation provides many benefits, and can be challenging to maintain when faced with parties who are having difficulty thinking of their own possible solutions. Learning how to tap into the parties’ creative energy is as much about opening and holding the space for creative problem solving as it is about skillfully guiding the parties through variations on the theme of brainstorming. Join this session to learn new tools to spice up the option generating phase of a mediation session and to review facilitative tips for keeping your suggestions far away from the mediation table.

Date: Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2017
Time: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
Location: Online, Free
Employee and boss; landlord and tenant; parent and child. There are myriad ways mixed levels of authority manifest at the mediation table. To effectively allow each participant an authentic voice in the mediation session requires us as mediators to move beyond the desire to “balance” the power in the room and into our own capacity to hold the truth of the discomfort that mixed levels of authority present. This session will overview best practices for creating balanced participation in mediation sessions where the levels of authority are a challenging issue.

Happy Holidays – chances are over the next couple months many of us might hear someone shout, “Hey! You’re a mediator! You help us figure this out!” while eating dinner with family members. When, if ever, should you mediate disputes between family members – formally or informally? And what level of engagement constitutes mediating? In this session, we’ll take a look at both the applicable ethics rules that might impact your decision to enter or exit the conversation as well as the practical concerns that come with conflicts of interest when our professional and personal lives collide.
