A Gift from Martha's Vineyard Mediation

Hi, it's Sara Barnes, Executive Director of MV Mediation, here to wish you a Happy Giving Tuesday!

But wait -- stop! -- before you click the "Donate" button, I'm not asking you to give on Giving Tuesday. 

You already give a lot, and I’m here to give you a gift. Our mission is to help conflict resolvers -- and that means you. You deserve a thank you gift for all your efforts toward making our world better. 

Our Gift to You: 

Below are seven tips on how to handle conflict and ways to expand your resolution toolbox. Just click on the question(s) you want answered!

These are the first seven days of our ongoing 40 Days of Resolution at Home series. If you’ve missed them so far and want 33 more days of  conflict resolution tips in your inbox this Holiday Season, click here to email us requesting to be added to the distribution list.

We want to thank you for being part of our community. Today, and every day, give those around you the gift of a commitment to conflict resolution.  And if someone already gave you the gift of conflict resolution, feel free to re-gift it -- it’s one gift that we all need.

Testimonials

“I was terrified when I came into the court. It seemed like the end of the world. Thanks to my compassionate and understanding mediators, I was able to have a productive conversation with someone I considered an adversary. I couldn’t believe we were able to work it out without going in front of a judge. Thank you MVMP.”

– Small Claims Client

“I was really not looking forward to mediation. But it turned turned out to be relatively pleasant. I really enjoyed working with the two of you. I plan to recommend mediation to others.”

– Divorce Client

“You brought us all together. It was awesome. I am so relieved. All our people felt uplifted, more united and part of a team. In particular one Board member said she felt she was taken care of with kindness and wisdom. We all know each other much better, have defined our work together and are in such better shape than we were when we started. Thank you MVMP.”

– Facilitation Client

“If you have the chance to do Conflict Coaching, DO IT! It was eye opening for me. My coach was kind, insightful and such a great listener. Most importantly, I learned so much about myself and about how I handle conflict. I now have a good, solid conflict management plan for the future.”

– Conflict Coaching Client

“It was valuable to help me handle a current conflict in my workplace. Putting a positive spin on conflict was an eye-opener for me. It gives me a structure to address problems. We had a very serious conflict at work recently so this is very important and relevant to me right now.”
