Considering ways in which mediators may influence disputing parties, especially in the workplace where mediators are paid to intervene, \u003ci\u003eExplorative Mediation at Work\u003c\/i\u003e questions the common claim that mediation is a neutral intervention. The difference between offering minimally intrusive support and acting to secure a containment and even suppression of workplace conflict is heavily dependent upon a mediator's practices. At worst, engineering resolution may tarnish mediation's reputation for impartiality. At best, mediation can win the trust of parties in conflict, facilitate a democratic engagement and be of real benefit to organizations. This book aims to demonstrate the latter in proposing a practice that supports parties to seek out dialogue from which relationships may be rebuilt and practical problems resolved.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45274443645079,"sku":"9781137516725","price":7345.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781137516725.webp?v=1769279939","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/explorative-mediation-at-work-the-importance-of-dialogue-for-mediation-practice-9781137516725","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
