Book excerpt: Most mediators feel that helping people end conflicts is special work, and, they're sustained by rewards beyond money, praise, or fame. But with no obvious career path and no prescribed courses to take or degrees to earn, how does one become a mediator? Whatever your background-whether in law, social work, teaching, psychology, business, homemaking, or parenting-you can become a mediator and find a satisfying career says Peter Lovenheim. Becoming a Mediator shows you how, offering a practical, nuts-and-bolts guide to breaking into the field and a no-nonsense approach to the reality of current professional opportunities. Drawing from the experiences of actual mediators, as well as from his own many years of work as an attorney and mediator, Lovenheim not only provides a vital resource but also conveys the sense of mission mediators feel for this emerging new profession.

Download or read book A Theory of Mediators Ethics written by Omer Shapira and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-14 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many aspects relating to the conduct of mediation are left to mediator choice, but mediators often lack adequate guidance on how their discretion ought to be exercised. In this book, Omer Shapira identifies the ethical norms that govern mediators' conduct. Adopting a professional ethics perspective on the basis of role-morality and applying it to a core definition of mediators' role, Shapira argues that all mediators are placed in ethical relationships with mediation parties, the mediation profession, the public and their employers. or principals that produce ethical obligations. The book goes on to explore the legitimate expectations of these groups and analyzes existing codes of conduct for mediators. Shapira constructs a theory of mediators' ethics that produces a proposed model code of conduct for mediators - a detailed set of norms of mediators' ethics that can be rationally justified and defended with regard to mediators at large.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study, grounded in the discourse of political philosophy, examines the effect of public mediation on community. The research questions were designed to examine this issue through the analysis of data from existing theories and research and new data collected from The Mediator of the French Republic. The data analysis identifies the elements that define community and public mediation, compares the elements of mediation with the elements of community, and then checks the results of these comparisons by examining the community building potential of The Mediator of the French Republic. Specifically, this study addresses the following three research questions: 1) What are the key elements of community and effective public mediation programs? 2) Which elements of effective public mediation programs and community are mutually supportive, functionally neutral, or discordant? and, 3) Does the mission and functioning of The Mediator of the French Republic provide an example of a mediation program that builds community? The findings in this study showed significant intersection between the elements of community and the elements of effective mediation programs, including the mission and functioning of The Mediator of the French Republic. Specifically, the French model includes important reform proposal powers that allow the Mediator to use information gained during mediations to suggest changes to French law and administrative procedure that are intended to make them more responsive to changing community needs. In sum, the review of existing theories and the analysis of the mission and functioning of The Mediator of the French Republic supports the conclusion that public mediation programs can help strengthen a sense of community, and even help define community, by reconciling individual and collective interests through fair, respectful, and inclusive processes. The data showed that when a mediation program is voluntary, widely available to all members of society, staffed by neutral, competent and independent mediators, and linked with mechanisms of policy reform, then relationships can be strengthened and collective interests can be advanced without unduly limiting personal rights and freedoms or impeding the resolution of individual complaints.

This book was released on 2020-09-24 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With society's rising affluence, children and families stand to inherit properties and many thousands and millions of dollars when parents and relatives pass away. The importance of setting out clear instructions about the distribution of your assets or wealth while you are still alive cannot be overstated. This process of estate planning involves making a will and perhaps setting up a trust, depending on your personal circumstances. The rise of the modern family and what such a family is likely to own, add to the diversity of planning required. In addition to the traditional two-parent family, we have families with single parents, partners of different races, nationalities and faiths, and same-sex partners. The modern family is likely to own foreign assets, a business, pets and digital assets, and likely to consider charitable giving in their estate planning. In this book, well-known estate planner Keon Chee takes you through the various aspects of estate planning, including the writing of a will, the setting up of a trust, planning your Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) and setting out other important final wishes. The author has invited several highly experienced practitioners to share their specialist knowledge throughout the book enhancing the breadth of coverage.
