TESTIMONIALS FOR PREVIOUS WORKSHOPS
“The material was both instructive and engaging, and also grounded in practical experience. I also got a good big picture of mediation as it is practiced around the world and some of the challenges. I also found the role plays helpfully intense and a good platform to pressure test the theory, and the feedback for the role plays were insightful and useful.”
Wen H
“I highly appreciated this workshop. There was a lot that I can now apply in my own mediation practice, in particular when it comes to multi-cultural disputes and online mediation. Thank you.”
