Episode 35: Interview with Monica Hanaway - The Role of Culture in Mediation

Kelli Confidential: Negotiation Essentials Empowering Extraordinary Women

"For me, mediation is about gaining another, deeper understanding of why the situation has occurred and a respect for the differences from each other. " We must first respect the reason for the dispute - and their differences - before we can attempt to show empathy or bridge harmony. - Monica Hanaway.
On the show today we're speaking with Monica Hanaway about the role of culture in mediation. In this episode, Monica shares with us some thought provoking stories as we explore the many types of culture - beyond a person's heritage - and its significance in how effectively a mediator or negotiator approaches conflict.
It's a must listen for any mediator or business leader looking to go beyond the surface-level agreement to secure lasting accord in their negotiations.
