1 Association of Missouri Mediators, Inc. Annual Conference Resolution What Does It Really Mean? Friday, October 30, 2015 Missouri Athletic Club 405 Washington Ave. St. Louis MO
2 Schedule 8:00AM 8:45AM 8:45AM 9:00AM 9:00AM 10:10AM Registration Introductions and Welcome Plenary Session: Resolution - What Does It Really Mean? Sue Bronson Conflicts develop from complex relationships between unpredictable people. As mediators we step into the conflict willingly with a unique mixture of logic, empathy, and creativity. Can conflict be successfully managed without being resolved? What does resolution really mean to each person involved? We will answer these questions (and many others) by looking at levels of resolution, exploring how we identify and meet parties expectations, and assessing our own choices as the intervener. Come ready to explore your own part in the messy, complex interaction of conflict resolution. Sue Bronson, M.S. is a mediator, trainer, and psychotherapist in private practice in Milwaukee, WI since 1983 mediating family, elder, and workplace disputes. Sue has over thirty years of mediation experience helping people engage in quality conversations. Sue Bronson teaches mediation at the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee School of Continuing Education. Sue currently is the Co-Chair of the ACR Task Force on Eldercaring Coordination. She is a charter member of the Wisconsin Association of Mediators, served on the Academy of Family Mediators board, Past Chair of the ACR Family Section and Past Co-Chair of the ACR Elder Section. 2
3 10:10AM 10:30AM Break 10:30AM 12:00PM Workshops A - C Workshop A: Using a Financial Professional in Mediation Cases Laura Boedges Uncoupling relationships - with their entanglements and emotional charges - is a gargantuan task. Mediators must be courageous, quick-thinking, creative, empathetic, patient, and knowledgeable. Partnering with a Financial Professional assists both the mediator and the parties by helping everyone understand the financials as well as a settlements near and long-term impacts. Mediators and Financial Professionals together help parties to save money, time and emotional energy by making well informed, lasting, fiscally responsible and tax-efficient decisions. Workshop B: Loss and Grief - Mediation s Potential to Heal Lynn Carruth-Rasmussen Have you ever wondered why some parties seem to be so entrenched in their positions or why a seemingly straight forward mediation immediately becomes hostile? One potential explanation is grieving. This interactive session will discuss grief as it manifests itself within the mediation including practitioners theories about how to identify grief, tools for working with grief, what barriers mediators may experience and how bridging mediation and grief will enhance resolution and parties opportunity for stronger resolution. Workshop C: When Do Mediators Go Too Far? Jason Rugo Can mediators go too far? How do you balance true party self-determination with the certainty that a party needs to be walked back from a destructive path, and his counsel is encouraging you to do this? How do you balance your obligations under the Model Standards of Conduct for Mediators with the concept of pushing a party towards a certain ending? This workshop examines a real case situation the presenter found himself in and how he handled it. Written materials will present thoughts of other mediators on similar situations. 12:00PM 1:00PM 1:00PM 1:10PM Lunch and Annual Membership Meeting Break 3
4 1:10PM 2:40PM Workshops D - F Workshop D: This is What Good Looks Like Carol Love & Jeanne Oberdan This presentation will address areas to consider when crafting a good parenting plan to ensure success for families post-divorce. Two family therapists, experienced in the area of high conflict co-parenting will discuss common pitfalls in final decrees. We will include a discussion of the dangers of Right of First Refusal, ways to accommodate change in schedules as children grow, how to build-in evaluations along the years, and principles guiding good parenting schedules. Workshop E: Emotional Fluency for Mediators Sue Bronson From Aristotle to neurobiology we learn that emotions are an important part of human interaction and conflict resolution. To become angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way that is not easy. Based on our own personal history, we have developed a style that works for us, as have the parties in a dispute. Improving your emotional fluency to adapt to different needs could have a positive impact in how others behave. Workshop F: Resolution through Mediation and Arbitration Allan Stewart Parties enter mediation to seek resolution of disputes, prior to and post dissolution of marriage. This particularly occurs under the dispute resolution element of Parenting Plans. Parties seek mediation in an effort to resolve disputes which sometimes focus on one issue. In such instances, reaching resolution through mediation can be difficult. Often parties will address the mediator when they come to a frustrating roadblock and say can t someone just make the decision. This calls into play the aspect of arbitration. 2:40PM 3:00PM Break 4
5 3:00PM 4:30PM Workshops G - I Workshop G: When Do We Go Too Far? Jason Rugo Can mediators go too far? How do you balance true party self-determination with the certainty that a party needs to be walked back from a destructive path, and his counsel is encouraging you to do this? How do you balance your obligations under the Model Standards of Conduct for Mediators with the concept of pushing a party towards a certain ending? This workshop examines a real case situation the presenter found himself in and how he handled it. Written materials will present thoughts of other mediators on similar situations. Workshop H: Applying Neuroscience Findings to Unwind Structural Changes in Conflict Paul Ladehoff This workshop will help us to consider whether, when, and how mediators might apply findings from neuroscience to help reverse structural changes that occur in relationships during conflict. These include practical questions such as whether and how best to conduct joint opening statements, how to manage confirmation bias and reactive devaluation when a mediator conveys information, problems with party predictions and loss aversion in coming to final decisions, and how much pressure a mediator might or should apply? It also includes more general questions such as what standard of proof should mediators require of a new neuroscientific theory before considering making adjustments to their practice? Workshop I: Loss and Grief - Mediation s Potential to Heal Lynn Carruth-Rasmussen Have you ever wondered why some parties seem to be so entrenched in their positions or why a seemingly straight forward mediation immediately becomes hostile? One potential explanation is grieving. This interactive session will discuss grief as it manifests itself within the mediation including practitioners theories about how to identify grief, tools for working with grief, what barriers mediators may experience and how bridging mediation and grief will enhance resolution and parties opportunity for stronger resolution. 4:30PM 4:40PM 4:40PM - 5:15PM Break CLOSING PANEL DISCUSSION: Resolution What Have We Learned? 5
