Gini Nelson’s Engaging Conflicts

“Being righteously right leaves absolutely no space for collaboration, for communication, for skillful conflict resolution, let alone for true relationship.” — Daniel Bowling

Engaging Conflicts Today interviews Daniel Bowling, ADR Program Staff Attorney for the US District Court for Northern California, and co-editor and co-author of Bringing Peace into the Room: The Personal Qualities of the Mediator and their Impact on Conflict Resolution (Jossey-Bass, 2003). He co-founded the first mediation organization in South Carolina, the LowCountry Mediation Network. As Executive Director of SPIDR, he managed the merger among SPIDR, AFM, and the Conflict Resolution Education Network, and served as the first CEO of ACR. He is working on a new book on Mindful Mediation.
