Yesterday afternoon we heard from David Hoffman on Mediation and the Meaning of Life, after which 10 of us gathered at my home for an early summer BBQ (above). So many top mediators in one room!
Today I spoke to both Mike Lind and Jim Melamed by video from the UK (2am) and the US (4.30pm). Wonderful to have these guys come visit for an hour and share their knowledge.
And then it was off to see Bill Rainey from Concordia and his session on Marketing and Sales: a mediator’s natural skill set.
And look at this!
Over at Mediator Tech Tammy Lenski has posted a podcast Welcome, LEADR Dispute Resolvers! especially for my 40 sites session tomorrow.
And Jim Melamed did the same here! “…from your mates at Mediate.com”
Man, I’ve got great mates out there.
The conference dinner is set for tonight.
