From SFOI Sheila Purcell
Dear Colleagues,
We hope this finds you well at this unusual time. I write from (smoky!) Northern California to invite you to:
New Frontiers in ADR
A virtual “lunch and learn” Speaker Series!
Mark your calendar and register for these two, free events, which will take place at noon Pacific, 1 Mountain, 2 Central, and 3 Eastern Time.
OCTOBER 14: GRANDE LUM
WORKING ON COMMUNITY-WIDE RECONCILIATION
Meet the co-author of “America’s Peacemakers”, Grande Lum, Provost of Menlo College and former Director of CNDR. This book tells the story of a federal agency within the Department of Justice that assists and mediates in communities as they reconcile and recover from discrimination, hate crimes, and unrest based on issues like race and religion.
OCTOBER 28: JOHN LANDE
HOW TO COMBINE “POSITIONAL” AND “INTEREST-BASED” NEGOTIATION AND “FACILITATIVE” AND “EVALUATIVE” MEDIATION
Professor John Lande will discuss how to go beyond traditional labels, and explore using techniques from both positional and interest based models of risk assessment in complementary ways. Based on his new book, “Litigation Interest and Risk Assessment: Help Your Clients Make Good Litigation Decisions.”
Looking forward to being in contact and being together virtually with some of you in October.
Warmly,
Sheila Purcell
Director and Clinical Professor of Law
Center for Negotiation & Dispute Resolution
UC Hastings College of the Law
