Well, the time has come for expansion, and I am pleased to welcome Stephen Strydom into the fold, in a format still to be finalized.
Stephen is an admitted advocate of the High Court of South Africa, and is a staunch proponent of alternate dispute resolution (ADR).
Together we intend to raise the profile of mediation and arbitration and educate end users about the benefits of alternate dispute settlement as opposed to litigated court action. Coming from a legal background (and especially a background in litigation), Stephen is all too aware of the costly, divisive and destructive nature of litigation. He held office on some of the earliest committees of The South African Association of Mediators back in the early nineties-back in the days when I was still in nappies. Okay, that's not true.He had a special interest in Divorce Mediation even then, when mediation wasn't exactly at the forefront of anyones minds.
And so we share an interest in this very exciting and ground-breaking field.
Over the next few weeks, I will be bringing you more interesting stuff and many different aspects of the application of ADR. If you have any particular interest, be it Family Mediation, Parenting Plans, Labour Mediation or Arbitration or Commercial Mediation or Arbitration, please drop me an email at sheena@mediatorsa.co.za or visit www.mediatorsa.co.za
Until next time, PEACE.
