  • Mediation Skills Training for Faculty and Staff

    HR is excited to annouce that in partnership with the Logue Group, we will be offering in-person Mediation Skills Training through a two-day, 14-hour program. It will also consist of 2-4 hours of asynchronous work prior to the in-person sessions. The Logue Group has designed and delivered a wide array of conflict management training programs for the last 30 years. The offered program is a modified version of the 40-hour program currently offered by Bill Logue and Loraine Della Porta at the Quinnipiac Law School Center on Dispute Resolution.

     

    We recommend this program for leaders and employees who engage in work (or seek to improve existing skills) that requires negotiation, conflict resolution, and difficult conversations. The program will focus on conflict styles, building trust, listening skills, dealing with emotions and difficult behaviors, difficult conversations and empathy, among other topics. Each in-person session will include lecture and discussion with an emphasis on small-group exercises and role plays.

     

    The program will consist of two 7-hour sessions. The total cost to participate, which includes the cost of lunch on both days, is $733. There is a 24-person limit for the program.
