What the heck just happened? As dispute resolution professionals, we often find ourselves scratching our heads in the midst of chaos. It is our job to navigate the quagmires while creating and holding a safe space for all parties to exercise their autonomy throughout the conflict resolution process.
This program introduces trauma-informed mediation principles and strategies for mediators to better understand and serve parties in crisis.
Mediators learn effective conflict management and conflict resolution tools and strategies to support the parties, facilitate negotiated resolutions, and maintain the integrity of the conflict resolution process.
