People in conflict need to be given the opportunity to properly prepare for mediation. To be truly effective, this means much more than providing them with information and a few questions to consider before the process starts. For mediation to achieve meaningful and lasting results, parties need to enter into the process with a constructive conflict mindset. Find out how pre-mediation coaching can significantly improve the outcomes of mediation, far beyond simply getting an agreement, by supporting the people involved to think about the conflict differently, and to embrace their role in a more peaceful future.

In the webinar you will:

Explore pre-mediation processes

Compare coaching with intake and pre-mediation meetings

Learn about the benefits of pre-mediation coaching and how it is most effective
