ACR Conference 2014 Preview: Lee Berman

Impasse IS a Fallacy: Lee Jay Berman discusses his Session at ACR Conference 2014 on Wednesday, October 8 from 1:45-5pm and outlines his "call to action". Why a call to action? Within Lee Jay's approach and focus for his session, he will break down the assumptions about impasse regardless of the nature of the dispute or the high conflict of the parties in: commercial; corporate; workplace; local, domestic or international disputes; schools; family; and amongst any other dispute contexts. His call to action is a means whereby new and experienced mediators can learn from Lee Jay and each other different ways of approaching, managing and resolving conflict with early conflict assessment, detailed information gathering, conflict re-frames and other ways to create resolution opportunities and overcome high disputant conflict that makes impasse the fallacy it is. His session will bring a sharpening of tools already in a mediator's toolbox, the creation of other tools to add to that tool-box so that mediator effectiveness and efficiency is enhanced. This is an interactive session where all can help and learn from each other so all can do their best work possible with the best tools while ensuring high conflict disputants are treated with respect, dignity and regard in reducing the conflict and ensuring impasse remains only a fallacy.
