<p> More information about workshop: This interactive workshop will provide an opportunity to explore the underlying premises of the transformative approach to mediation practice and to address the key challenges it raises in practice. How does a mediators' underlying purpose shape his or her specific approach to practice during mediations? What should a mediation process look like if we assume that conflict is a crisis in human interaction? What third party role, personal presence, and interventions support the transformation of the parties' conflict interaction? </p>
<p>This workshop will address three types of challenges that transformative conflict intervention practitioners often face. Specifically, it will cover: <i>Value</i> challenges – when and why the core commitments of the model are difficult to sustain in practice; <i>Cognitive</i> challenges – the mental orientation and cognitive agility needed to perform the skills of a transformative practitioner; and <i>Communication</i> challenges – the communication skills a mediator needs to enact transformative interventions.</p>
