Mediation Training

Mediation Training Focusing on Fluid Mediation Skills

Margaret provides mediation training and supervision for novice and experienced mediators.

This includes:

• A one day in-house mediation workshop for practising mediators focusing on relevant practice issues
• A two-day workshop for practising mediators focusing on fluid mediation and negotiating skills
• A five-day retreat for practising mediators, negotiators and peace builders based on moving the focus from mediating the problem to mediating the moment.

All training includes a focus on fluid mediation skills including:

• the art of being totally present in the moment;
• intuition that goes beyond simple pattern recognition;
• Meditation/Mindfulness;
• Managing the challenge of being an irritant;
• The use of time and space (Temporality, ‘The Third’, ‘The Field’)

Reviews:

• The retreat is more content-driven than your advertisement suggests.   It is probing, thoughtful, enriching, and forces reflective thought on all aspects of tangible and intangible Mediator skills.
• I really found the workshop to be greatly beneficial although the approach to teaching was different to what I expected. It was a wonderful inclusive experience.
• The ‘intangibility’ of the content-the permission to explore; the ‘safe’ feeling of speaking up.
• Opportunity to reflect, share with fellow professionals. The opportunity to learn, use space and the moment to explore.
• The total focus on the art of mediation in a group of fellow professionals
• To be able to share experiences with the presenters and colleagues in a supportive, nurturing environment
