More and more, we are a connected world. So when it comes to intercultural communication...Is it what you say? Or how you say it? Or both? In this episode, Veronica talks with Lynn Cole--founder and CEO of BRDGES Academy--about intercultural communication and why mediators need this skill. Episode highlights include:
Ms. Cole served as a USAID Mediation/ADR Specialist for over 10 years designing Court-Related Mediation Programs in Bulgaria, Kosovo, Jordan, and Sri Lanka. For over three years and until March 1, 2014, she served as the President and Chair of the Board of Directors for Mediators Beyond Borders, International and still serves on the board. In May 2011, she spoke to the United Nations about mediation as an effective global conflict resolution tool within global communities. She is a recognized author on the explosive global growth of international mediation. She has lectured and trained extensively internationally in Commercial Mediation; Ethics; Basic and Advanced Mediation; and, Community Mediation, and has taught mediation courses domestically and internationally for students in Universities and Law Schools worldwide, and formerly as an Adjunct Professor at Stetson College of Law. Over the last 17 years, she has conducted in-person mediation training for judges, attorneys and mediators from Canada, Jordan, Oman, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Slovenia, Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia, Croatia, Albania, Montenegro, Bosnia/Herzegovina, Greece, Tunisia, Cypress, Kosovo, Turkey, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka.
