Counsel who have been through mediations have no doubt seen a variety of mediator “moves” that have made them scratch their head. This can range from, “How did they know that?!” to “What in the world are they thinking?!” In the timing of that moment, it’s often a distraction to stop and ask the mediator. And, if your negotiation is ongoing, you may not want to. Additionally, at best, counsel only see one side of the mediator’s strategy and discussion. Counsel say they often wonder what the mediator is doing and saying in the other room.
This workshop will be one full hour of your questions, as you want to pose them to Master Mediator Lee Jay Berman. You can ask anything you want to about the mediation process, and he will give you his answers. While Lee Jay can’t speak for all mediators, he can likely tell you what that mediator may have been trying to do, or what other mediators might have done in the same situation. You have one hour of complete transparency – a peek behind the curtain and into the mind of the mediator. We hope you’ll make good use of it!
This will be an interactive presentation. Attendees are encouraged to engage with the speaker, ask questions, and participate via video.
