The Transformative Approach to Mediation
The Transformative Approach to Mediation focuses on empowering parties and improving their communication, rather than just resolving a specific dispute. This method encourages individuals to understand their own needs and those of others, fostering mutual respect and collaboration. The mediator facilitates this process by guiding conversations, helping parties to reflect on their feelings and perspectives. The goal is not only to reach an agreement but also to transform relationships, promoting personal growth and a deeper understanding among those involved. This approach values the process of dialogue and learning as much as the outcome itself.
