7, 14, 21, 28 March and 4 April 2024

With the Singapore Convention on Mediation, commercial mediation in Asia is poised to grow like never before. Be ready with the skills and expertise needed for Mediation Advocacy today!

WHAT IS THE MEDIATION ADVOCACY WORKSHOP?

Sage Mediation’s  Mediation Advocacy Workshop will equip participants with a deeper appreciation of their roles as Mediation Advocates.

Asia’s fast-evolving dispute resolution landscape, driven by a clientele growing in education, wealth, and technological capabilities, has meant that the modern advocate needs to find new ways to resolve disputes quickly and effectively.

With the use of real case studies and role playing sessions by experienced international conflict management experts, participants will be equipped with both online and in-person negotiation techniques, learn how to prepare themselves and their clients for complex inter-cultural mediations, and how to work with the mediator to achieve innovative solutions for their clients.
