PON – Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School - https://www.pon.harvard.edu
Semester Mediation and Conflict Management
This highly-interactive, online course is designed to raise your awareness of your own approach to conflict, introduce a range of theories about mediation and participatory processes, and improve your conflict management skills. While we will discuss a wide range of dispute resolution processes that involve third parties, we will focus on mediation.
“After years working on Wall Street and on the launch team of a Cambridge start-up, the PON seminar changed my life. The seminar broadened my thinking about conflict management in our families, businesses and communities and the perspective and skills I learned gave me a sound grounding from which I developed a rewarding career advising enterprising families on managing conflict when continuing relationships matter. After 15 years, the teachings from the seminar continue to have practical, daily relevance to the work I do and I highly recommend it.”
