Introduction to mediator self-care –
mediating your inner dialogue

with Ike Lasater

Monday 15 February

ike lasaterWorking with people in conflict stimulates reactions to the subject matter, the people involved and conflict in general.

Caring for ourselves is vital to support our continued work in the area of conflict.

We often hear a critical voice in our head that judges us against an impossible standard of perfection. Learning from these dialogues can enable us to do better work as mediators, conflict coaches and other ADR practitioners.

Ike will introduce how the skill of self-empathy as based on the principles of Non-violent Communication (NVC) can be applied to care for ourselves before, during and after mediations or coaching sessions.

(NVC is a simple and powerful communication model developed by Marshall B Rosenberg comprising four basic components: observation, feeling, need and request. For more information see: www.CNVC.org)

Ike Lasater brings his rich experience as a lawyer, mediator, facilitator and trainer to help us learn the challenging business of mediating our self.

This will be a valuable taster for the 1 day workshop that Ike will facilitate on Monday 1 March. Click here for more info >>
