Structure and Content
Whether you want to apply mediation professionally or acquire mediation competence as an adjunct to your professional activity: this training series will meet both objectives equally with its modular structure.
As a basis in the seminar serves the Tansformative Mediation as newly emerging flow from the USA and also the classic and widely used probelm-solving model of mediation (Facilitative Mediation). Skills are acquired to professionally accompany conflict mediation skills, increase mediative attitudes and promote creativity. Your reflectivity, imagination and empathy are strengthened. Taking into account the preferred working method of each participant, you will also be given the opportunity to develop a personal and distinctive style from your already learned and acquired skills. This is made possible by the high attention to self-reflection and self-determination.
Last but not least, the ability to carry out educational events on topics of constructive conflict management should also be conveyed - as a contribution to the development of a positive culture of debate in the society.
