One of the disconcerting challenges in mediation is forceful participants and bullying behavior, which often lead to a failure in the mediation process. Sometimes individuals with active or competitive personalities are labeled as bullies, resulting in conflict resolution professionals overlooking the pivotal positive strengths and capacities these “bullies” can bring to the resolution process. In this webinar, we’ll examine attributes that are often classified as bullying, delve into how parties perceive bullying, and how we can turn bullies into benefactors.
