Description

It is important for experienced, practicing mediators to expand their toolboxes of techniques. Developing core skill sets, questioning entrenched systems, and appreciating the complex nature of human relationships can help mediators advance their practice. Exploring mediation as a craft can lead to incorporating multidisciplinary approaches, including appreciative inquiry, which ultimately support diversity of practice and cultural diversity.
