Erik Cleven

Erik Cleven is a professor in the Department of Politics at Saint Anselm College where he teaches courses in international relations and comparative politics. He is currently co-editor with Judith A. Saul of a forthcoming volume on transformative dialogue which includes contributions from many practitioners connected to the ISCT. The book, entitled Co-Creating Conversations: Transformative Dialogue in Organizations and Communities will be published by Rowman and Littlefield in 2024 as part of their ACR Practitioner's Guide Series. He is also working on a research project with Angela Garcia of Bentley University to study the way facilitators use the core transformative skills of reflecting and summarizing. Finally, he is working on a book project on dialogue philosophy which will explore the implications for our understanding of dialogue of the thought of Emmanuel Levinas and several other thinkers whose work is relevant to dialogue. Erik has extensive experience with dialogue in post-conflict settings in the Balkans and East Africa and together with Judith A. Saul he has held trainings in transformative dialogue in Kenya, Jordan, Norway, the Netherlands, and the United States.


Lecture:

A Relational and Dialogical World: Foundations of Transformative Practice

In this lecture Erik will explore two topics that have received little attention from scholars and practitioners interested in transformative practice. First, he will explore what it might mean to hold a relational worldview. Transformative practitioners often say that transformative practice builds on a relational worldview, but often have difficulty articulating what that means beyond stating that humans are fundamentally social beings. Here Erik will turn to what The Promise of Mediation calls "moral dialogic philosophers" to answer this question. Second, he will explore what the implications of a relational worldview might be for those who wish to engage in dialogue. How is dialogue best understood? Most transformative work focuses on the role of the intervener and beyond the Responding Effectively to Conflict modules there has been little discussion of what engaging in dialogue might entail. 

Judy Saul

Judith A. Saul has over three decades of experience in mediation, facilitation and training. She is a Fellow and former Board member of the Institute for the Study of Conflict Transformation, and through the Institute, a Certified Transformative Mediator. Judy founded and ran a community mediation center in Ithaca, NY for over 25 years where she designed and implemented basic and advanced training, coaching and assessment for mediators. She has extensive experience mediating interpersonal disputes, planning and facilitating organizational and community dialogues, and training and coaching mediators. With Institute colleagues, she developed Transformative Dialogue, applying the relational framework to dialogue processes occurring in communities in conflict, including those that have experienced ethnic and political conflict. Judy has trained nationally and internationally in Transformative Mediation and Transformative Dialogue. 


Lecture:

Premises of Transformative Practice 2.0

The basic premises have been the cornerstone of a transformative approach to conflict for decades. But in the thirty years since their formulation, the world has changed. It has become more complex and diverse, especially in the social sphere. The original set of assumptions involving understanding the effects of conflict interaction on individuals and their capacities for both personal autonomy and empathy for the other no longer fully explain many phenomena in the contemporary world. Judy will offer the first results of years of work on premises that have been called for by the practice of transformative dialogue in dealing with group, organizational, interethnic, and national conflicts. The new premises reflect embeddedness in structures and relations of power, questions of identity and understanding about how people function in groups.

Lecture:

Directive Moves and Making Decisions on Behalf of Our Clients (Panel Session)

Monitoring oneself and maintaining the purpose of transformative practice is one of the most difficult tasks that await professionals in the non-directive conflict resolution industry. In this panel discussion, participants will explore the question of which directive impulses they most often face in their practice - when and what decisions they are tempted to make on behalf of or in the interest of our clients, and how they deal with those temptations. Do we always and in all circumstances leave all decisions to our clients, or are there times when it is right to go the extra mile?

Lecture:

Self-Determination in Transformative Practice: The Art and Magic of Mirrors and Lights

The 2022 book Dan authored with Tara West explores the concept of self-determination in mediation. A commitment to party self-determination doesn't always lead to clear answers about how a mediator should behave. Dan will explore how Self-Determination Theory and the Transformative Approach to Mediation can inform how mediators sort out the tough questions. In this presentation, Dan will introduce examples of particularly challenging dilemmas he and other transformative mediators have faced; and he will suggest possible answers to these dilemmas.

Olivier Chambert-Loir

Olivier Chambert-Loir has almost three decades of experience in facilitation, training, and mediation. He is a fellow of the ISCT, a certified transformative mediator, and an accredited trainer. Olivier began his career in a management consulting firm, quickly specializing in supporting people through transforming their organizations, considered human systems, with issues of power and cooperation.

In the mid-2000s, as a freelancer, he began to support individuals and teams in their reflective practices (executive coaching...) and their attempts to dialogue and co-construct (problem-solving, facilitation, decision support...). In the early 2010s, he became a mediator. He extended his coaching and mediation practice to more diverse populations, in organizations (non-executive managers, all types of employees...) and then with individuals.

Feeling the need to free himself from methods and tools to practice in a less directive way, he finally encountered the transformative approach in 2014 and began to commit to its growth in France.
Today, he divides his time between piloting programs to develop emotional and relational skills in organizations, providing dialogue assistance (transformative dialogue, mediation, conflict management coaching) both in the workplace and with individuals (particularly families/siblings/couples), and training in conflict management and mediation.

Lecture:

Mediator Ethical Challenges: Transformative Responses

Once mediators are proficient in the skills of mediation, they often ask themselves questions about how to respond to ethical challenges – namely when there are two competing principles the mediator is attempting to honor. Transformative mediators often have fewer challenges in this regard because of clarity as to the most important mediation value. In this brief session, Sharon Press will discuss the current state of ethical standards and how this might impact transformative mediators.

Workshop:

Advanced Reflection: Capturing Behavior in Reflections 

The intervention of reflection is integral to the practice of transformative mediation, and transformative practitioners recognize reflection's power to support struggling parties in becoming more clear and more decisive as they assert, contend, and navigate differences. Yet, in certain moments in their interactions, there are incongruences between the words parties employ and the meaning they project. In such critical moments the preponderance of meaning is expressed through behavior, not words, and reflecting words alone will not capture the essence of parties' expression, and may even distort their efforts. This workshop is intended to help mediators to extend the benefits reflections confer by capturing parties' behaviors and translating those behaviors into spoken words – it might well have been titled, Listening with your Eyes.

Lecture:

FACE and Transformative Practice/Development of a "FACE Lens" for Transformative practitioners

As transformative mediators and dialogue facilitators, we often notice the concerns parties express, both verbally and nonverbally, concerning identity, dignity, status, and reputation. These concerns show up in conflict conversations and are directly linked to the party's or participant's efforts to avoid a loss of face, attempt to save face, or protect the other's face.

Developing a FACE Lens increases the ability to recognize and respond skillfully to FACE concerns, especially in cases where there is a pronounced difference between the intervenor's lived cultural/socio-economic experience and that of one or more of the parties. The FACE Lens, applied and practiced with a non-directive, transformative approach, deepens intercultural competencies and cultural humility for mediators and dialogue facilitators working in any setting.

FACE concerns are manifestations of parties being temporarily stuck in states of weakness and self-absorption, as understood in the Transformative approach. Because every human being has intersecting identities that are both individual and cultural/societal, it is sometimes difficult for mediators and dialogue facilitators to hear and sense the FACE concerns a party is expressing and to respond skillfully in ways that will support Empowerment and Recognition shifts for both/all participants. The FACE Lens builds these skills for mediators, facilitators, and coaches practicing Transformatively.
