Mediation Training : Workplace Mediation Seminars

Discover the potential of Transformative Mediation for resolving workplace disputes!

The Conflict Resolution Center (CRC) offers Workplace Mediation seminars every year to anyone interested in transforming workplace culture. Learn new or add to your existing skills in working more effectively with conflict at work as a party to conflict as well as a third-party mediator. Gain comfort in handling conflict between co-workers, supervisors, and management. Rather than ignore the conflict and hope it goes away, learn how to facilitate difficult conversations and work toward understanding and better decisions.

Our Workplace Mediation seminar will cover:
  • Understanding the dynamics of conflict
  • Impact of conflict on the workplace
  • Improving one-on-one interactions and communication
  • Transformative Mediation Theory
  • Role of empowerment and recognition
  • Mediator skills and interventions
  • Ethics

A significant portion of the seminar is also devoted to mediation practice where you will be able to practice your skills and receive instant feedback from one of our experienced coaches.
