GETTING TO MAYBE: The Intersection of ADR and Adult Learning
New York Law School
Mediators facilitate dialogue and communication among parties in conflict to move them toward are solution of their own making.

In order to interpret, integrate, and understand information, adults engage in a process of sense-making.

The two experts will explore how adults learn and process communications to help create opportunity and potential for parties to consider possibilities and alternatives for resolving their differences
