Communication skills have long been recognized as essential for professional success, and many careers have stalled or faltered due to a lack of these skills. Contrary to popular belief, few individuals are naturally endowed with strong communication abilities; most develop these skills through practice or by learning from their mistakes. This course is designed to assist participants in enhancing their communication skills, thereby improving their ability to collaborate effectively with others. Mediation skills, while related to communication, have distinct characteristics that set them apart. While effective communication is a prerequisite, the key elements for mediators are active listening and attentiveness to what is being said. The primary role of a mediator is to facilitate the parties in reaching a mutually acceptable solution to their dispute without taking sides, making judgments, or offering guidance. Mediators focus on fostering effective communication and building consensus between the parties. This course also covers the broader range of skills required for government mediators to be effective in their roles.
