Mediation as a way of thinking and living

A starting point for understanding mediation

In these ten lessons, I teach the foundations of mediation and the New Partnership Method. We explore what lies behind disagreement, why people dig in and how to help them talk again. I invite you to watch, practise and bring the tools into your relationships.

What we will learn and how to start practising

01

Who is the course for?

Anyone who wants to understand the people around them better and improve how they handle disagreements. Parents, educators, managers and community members will find a foundation for working with people. Mediators can also discover my approach. No previous knowledge is needed to begin.

02

What will we learn?

We explore positions and needs, collaborative negotiation, emotions and questions. We learn tools such as reflection and empowerment, and examine how to build an opening conversation and move towards agreements. We also consider the mediator’s responsibilities and guiding ethical principles.

The aim is to start recognising what is happening in a conversation so you can choose how to respond. With practice, you can use the tools in more situations in everyday life.

03

A foundation for learning and the next steps

This introductory course has ten lessons you can watch at your own pace and revisit as you practise. It provides a foundation for understanding mediation and using its tools in life. Professional mediation or training mediators requires further appropriate training and experience.

04

Many languages, a shared starting point

I want people to learn mediation in the language they think and feel in. That is why I am working to translate the course into more languages. In translated versions, my digital avatar presents the lessons and helps bring the content to more audiences.

05

Make room for learning in your life

After each lesson, choose one tool and try it in a real conversation. For example, ask an open question and listen to the whole answer, or explain in your own words what you heard and check your understanding. Notice what helped, what was difficult and what you want to try next time.

One conversation can be a beginning.

Start with the first lesson and think of a conversation where you would like to try what you learn.
