Mediation Facilitation Training
People are social creatures that spend most of their time working in groups. Wherever those groups meetworkplace, home, school, church, or the halls of governmentsuccess depends on establishing healthy functioning relationships through clear communication, group problem-solving, and conflict resolution.
These essential practices do not come naturally to every organization. Even those that understand their value will sooner or later find themselves in the midst of conflict, strong emotions, and seemingly intractable differences of opinion. Left unaddressed, these forces can tear an organization apart. But these times of crisis are also an opportunity to grow stronger.
Bob Garrity is a mediator, facilitator, and trainer who works to build up, support, and train the groups that form a smoothly functioning society. He examines the relational infrastructure of an organization and then provides what is needed to make it healthier and more resilient. This will usually involve helping people understand each other, their environment, the issues before them, and the possibilities ahead of them. This, in turn, brings out the best talents of each manager, employee, educator, student, family member, and citizen.
