Mediation allows you to transform a negative situation into balanced solutions – created by you, for you. Mediation strategies in conflict resolution and conflict management are the goals of Hale Strategies. These mediation strategies are designed specifically to be utilized with family and community conflict and workplace mediation.
Choosing to mediate puts the power in your hands. Mediation is mutual. Mediation is choosing to work out your conflict with a mediator who is neutral and helps each of you communicate in productive ways. The mediator helps you reach your goal – the creation of a balanced solution.
Mediation is a mutual connection or reconnection with others you are in conflict with for the purpose of finding a way to resolve your differences. These differences or conflicts can happen anywhere: work, home, school, church, and in your community.
It is a place where together, you create a balanced solution for your specific situation. In mediation, you don’t lose because you are creating the solution to your conflict. By choosing mediation, you are choosing to communicate in a respectful, polite manner to address your conflict in a way that is mutually beneficial.
