“Great trainings that can go hand-in-hand with the Advanced Mediation Training. These trainings provide a thoughtful approach to mediation that does not limit the mediator to orthodoxy. The focus is on providing skills that support what our clients need.”
“No matter how many times I learn from Woody, there is always something new, something golden, and something that challenges practice norms. For anyone who wants to keep evolving and avoid practical and philosophical stagnation, I highly recommend Woody’s Master Class.”
