The Alternative Dispute Resolution Section of the State Bar of Michigan will present a webinar, “Effectively Addressing Difficult Emotions in Mediation” on May 11, noon to 1:30 p.m. via Zoom.
Attendees will learn practical strategies to address blame, shame and other difficult emotions that frequently arise in mediation. The webinar will also explore how to recognize and effectively respond to four common reactions to shame – blaming others, blaming self, avoidance, and withdrawal. The impact of emotions on dispute resolution and the difference between shame and guilt also will be explored.
The presentation will include checklists and tools for identifying prevalent cognitive biases and techniques for managing and counteracting these biases.
Laura A. Athens, mediator, facilitator and arbitrator, is the featured speaker with Zena D. Zumeta as moderator.
