The Association for Conflict Resolution, Hawai‘i Chapter, and the ADR Section of the Hawai‘i State Bar Association are jointly sponsoring a free workshop:
“ADR Gender Communication: Recognition and Effective Strategies”
August 8, 2016
Noon to 1 p.m.
HSBA Office, Main Conference Room
1100 Alakea Street, Suite 1000 (10th Floor)
The workshop will cover:
(1) basic differences in gender communication which mediators-arbitrators should be looking for while communicating with male and female participants (while communication styles and tendencies vary among individuals, some fundamental gender differences will be identified);
(2) mediator-arbitrator communication strategies for effective bridge-building of differences between the parties.
We will not agree on all gender differences, but the discussion will be informative and entertaining (with video examples).
Credit for the content of the workshop is given to Dr. Patricia Heim and the Heim Group in Dallas, Texas, who have been doing an outstanding job of educating men and women on workplace gender communication since 1985. Richard (Dick) Mosher, Law Offices of Dick Mosher, LLC (who has been trained by Dr. Patricia Heim, at the Heim Group in Dallas) will lead the workshop.
