MY GREAT GOOD BLOGGING FRIEND DINA LYNCH AT MEDIATION MENSCH AND ADR PRACTICE BUILDER ASKS OF THIS SURVEY: 

 "SHOULD I TAKE THE SURVEY AS A MEDIATOR OR A CLIENT/LAWYER?"

THANKS FOR HELPING ME SEE THE CONFUSION DINA!

HERE ARE THE FUNDAMENTAL QUESTIONS UNDERLYING THE SURVEY:

Are we as mediators in the business of delivering justice or simply final resolution?  

Do the attorneys and/or clients who use our services WANT US to be in the business of delivering justice (or enabling it?) when we help them resolve a dispute?

HERE'S THE ANSWER TO DINA'S QUESTION:

You can't really take the survey as a mediator.  You need to take it as a lawyer serving clients or as the client itself.

THE QUESTIONS ARE NOT ASPIRATIONAL, i.e., would you REALLY rather WIN at any cost or LOSE fairly?

That's a genuine question.

The answers can be anonymous.

It's not an easy question to answer truthfully. 

Try your best to put yourself back into a situation where you really wanted to prevail. 

Now answer the survey!  Here's the link to the survey again. 

We'll post the results here next week.
