Mediation is a process built on respectful communication practices and designed to clarify issues, needs and preferred options for the future. The mediator is a trained professional who brings a neutral perspective to the conversation and works so that all opinions are heard and valued.
At its best, this approach prevents the breakdown of communication, eliminates costly litigation and provides an opportunity to learn and be more effective in the future. This enables the parties and organization to move forward respectfully and productively. The mediator also takes detailed notes during the process to accurately record agreements and provide a written document for future reference.
Mediation is a process that supports parties moving through important, but emotional issues so that decisions are made and implemented in a respectful manner and lead to clear and mutually agreeable next steps.
