I hope that you are well. It looks like you completed your doctorate. Congratulations! I always enjoyed listening to you and learning more about the field of ADR.

I have a question. I have two ideas for two separate papers on the emergence of ADR expertise in two distinct industries. I see notices for presentations at various mediation and ADR forums. How do I submit my ideas for papers/presentations? Do I send a precis or a complete paper. I welcome your advice.

Cordially,

JCT
