Sommario/riassunto

Tapping the experience and wisdom of over 175 highly qualified mediators from across different realms of the mediation practice and across geographic regions, Expert Mediators: Overcoming Mediation Challenges in Workplace, Family, and Community Conflicts integrates best practices to overcome classic mediation challenges. For each proposed strategy, this book discusses conditions under which each practice should be used as well as approaches to mitigate risks associated with using each strategy and technique.
