The mediator meets first with each party individually
before bringing you together, offering
unbiased suggestions and
advice, but never imposing a solution.
First we didn't assume «doing your best» was related to effort or desire to do good, it related to having the understanding that boards of directors and committees should be seeking independent,
unbiased, expert
advice and contrarian dissenting opinion on that
advice to ensure, all options are considered
before entering any area impacted by new technologies.
