Synopsis
You have lots of them – stories of mediations where you were pleased with how you created just the right atmosphere, did the most effective interventions, brought the parties to new levels of insight and understanding. And then there are the ones you ponder, when you were frustrated with the parties, or no matter what you did, things just weren’t working, or you didn’t feel on top of your game or worse still, you thought you did all right but one or more of the parties gave negative feedback you didn’t feel was justified being directed at you.
On September 10, we’ll have an opportunity to reflect not so much on what we learn from the stories we create about our own mediations, but how we process those mediations and why we recreate the narratives we do.
Ron Monk will have a number of “war stories” that he will relate – complex multi-party processes, one-on-one workplace, family and child protection situations. They will provide fodder for his own machinations and the degree to which his stories of those mediations served him. Bring one of your own stories to the meeting.
