The State Bar of Michigan will present the 4th Annual Alternative Dispute Resolution Summit, “Harnessing the Power of the Master Mediator: Seeing New Things in the Same Old Rooms.” The summit will be held Tuesday, March 20, from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at Western Michigan University Cooley Law School, 2630 Featherstone Rd., Room 145 in Auburn Hills.
The 2018 ADR Summit will feature noted mediator and mediation trainer Lee Jay Berman. Berman was an early member of the National Academy of Distinguished Neutrals and a Distinguished Fellow with the International Academy of Mediators. He’s been certified by the International Mediation Institute, and appointed as a Dispute Resolution Expert with the United Nations Development Program. He is a Master Mediator on the American Arbitration Association’s employment mediation panel.
This all-day workshop is for mediators ready to move to the next level of awareness and consciousness, grounded in deeper connection with participants. It will assist them in making a difference with their work – both in the lives of their mediation participants, and in themselves.
This experiential workshop will reach beyond classic mediation training to work with the counter-intuitive. Master Mediators see things differently, they hear things differently, and they proceed differently than other mediators. You will practice tools which Master Mediators draw upon to allow them to function at a higher level, including deep insights in self-awareness; neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) to build rapport and understanding; the psychology of conflict and manipulation; and raising your levels of perception.
This program has been approved for 8 hours of advanced mediator training by the State Court Administrative Office. Lunch on the premises included.
The conversation can continue after the seminar at a complimentary catered reception at 5:30 p.m. Cost for the seminar is $155 for ADR Section members; $195 for non-section members; $25 for law students; and free for WMU-Cooley students (law students must include their law school e-mail address.
