SUMMARY:Workplace Mediation: 40-Hour Conflict Resolution and Mediation Training
DESCRIPTION:To register\, scroll to the bottom of this page.\nFeb 23 & 24 and March 1 thru 3\, 2023\n8:00 AM – 4:30 PM PST\nONLINE\nAll sessions include breaks throughout the day\nDo you facilitate important conversations between clients\, employees\, team members\, volunteers or other people? \nDo you want to manage conflict conversations productively? \nAre you responsible for creating or managing workplace mediation teams and practice at a corporation\, business\, or nonprofit organization? \nIn this gold standard conflict resolution training session focused on the workplace\, participants learn how to support parties working through conflict or engaging in other important conversations in a different way. Our Understanding-Based model focuses on guiding parties to make knowing and informed choices together in a respectful manner.  Highlights of our basic training\, Workplace Mediation\, include: \n\nPositive neutrality –supporting all parties without taking sides\nThe Loop of Understanding – enhancing understanding and empathy\nGround of Understanding – helping people in conflict reach the heart of the dispute to move towards resolution\nCreative Options — innovating to meet differing needs and interests\nA Foundation for the Future — building the groundwork for the parties to make effective and lasting decisions together now and in the future\n\n  \n \n  \nWho Will Benefit From This Training?\nOur participants include human resources professionals\, ombuds-people\, mediators\, business consultants\, executive coaches\, managers and supervisors\, non-profit personnel\, and other people whose work will be enhanced by increased skills in conflict resolution. Participants report it is one of the top mediation programs they have taken. \nPrevious participants include employees from the following organizations and others: Intel\, Roche\, SAP\, San Francisco Zen Center and Kaiser Permanente. \n \nWhat is the Format of the Training?\nThis interactive online training features briefings on the core skills of the Understanding Based Approach\, followed by lively demonstrations and role-plays\, all of which immerse participants in the learning. Realistic simulations\, in which participants work through mediations from beginning to end\, with coaching from our teachers\, offer participants the chance to hone their skills and experience the emotional challenges faced by parties in dispute. Participants describe these different modes of learning and their interplay as enjoyable as they are engaging and rewarding. \n \nWho are the Trainers?\nCatherine Conner has been a mediation and collaborative practice trainer since 2004.
