Turning Disagreement into Opportunity
This interactive workshop facilitated by Alison Ebbitt and Charlie Irvine (see biographies below) is an opportunity for practitioners to reflect at a deeper level about how your work impacts on you in both the short and longer term.
This event is suitable for new and experienced mediators in any mediation discipline.
