ADR Advocates™
ADR Advocates® is a new program that will provide a designated Advocate for interested parties during mediation. An appointed Advocate will be a source of individualized support, address all questions and provide answers, discuss concerns, provide opinions, and assist in development of approaches and strategies. All Advocates are trained mediators, and specialists in various categories of conflicts will be available. The benefits of a personal Advocate have been immediately apparent during initial introduction of ADR Advocates® as evidenced by the increase in effective party interactions, confidence developed out of additional personalized support, and increased creativity of settlement options.
Negotiation Coaching
Negotiating can be tricky - knowing what to say, when, and how. Collaborate with an SCI Mediation expert and discuss your unique case to develop strong, well-suited approaches that are designed to target and successfully reach your desired goals. A prepared negotiating plan-of-action that includes role-play practice will bring comfort and confidence to situations that often feel scary and intimidating. Your tailored negotiation approach can be applied during conflict intervention with SCI Mediation, or for your use in alternate settings.
Health and Well-being
There is no limit to the impact that conflict can have on emotional and physical health and well-being. Negative effects often present immediately, at some point in the future, or both, and can interfere in daily life activities such as engaging with coworkers, colleagues, employees, and leadership; and in personal relationships such as with neighbors, family, friends, and romantic partners. Conflict can elevate heart rate and blood pressure, cause dizziness and brain fog, and potentially result in uncontrolled and unintended emotional and behavioral outbursts leading to unwanted consequences and costs. Regain control over your health and well-being by learning strategies with a continuous support system to better manage conflict and your reaction to it.
Exceed your expectations with creative approaches to your conflict challenges.
“The creativity of the settlement agreement that we reached is something I never could have imagined on my own.”
“We would never have solved our conflict if it were not for our mediator listening to and caring about our true needs and concerns, and then coming up with suggestions that we both could agree to.”
