“A major stimulant to creative thinking is focused questions. There is something about a well-worded question that often penetrates to the heart of the matter and triggers new ideas and insights.”
— Brian Tracy

Bits and pieces
I now have an online Events Calendar showing upcoming workshops, teleseminars and speaking engagements, some related to my virtual book tour, some to mediation training, and some to conflict resolution in general.
Here’s to bringing your own ADR dreams to life,

Looking forward to joining one of those teleseminars.
Would love to have you be on one of them, Elie. I’m thinking of doing one or two that aren’t necessarily affiliated with a specific association, and if I do, I’ll certainly let you know!
I am new to the mediation field, I am so excited about the potential this field has, yet am overwhelmed and don’t know how to get my name out there to get started. Is this marketing geared toward the lawyer – civil mediation? My degree is in Political Science, Certified Paralegal and Registered Domestic Relations Mediator – would this help in my area?
Thanks!!

Hi, Susan – Both this site and my book are written with mediators in mind, regardless of profession of origin. Whether or not your particular mix of prior studies and experience will help you as a mediator will likely depend more on your marketing savvy, quality work as a mediator, and target audience than anything else.
