Our philosophy of conflict resolution is based on the proposition that the parties to a conflict have more in common than they initially realize. The parties are burdened not by each other but by the conflict itself. It is in their interest to work together to resolve the conflict and relieve their burden. It is not in their interest to work against each other. This realization requires the maintenance of a safe environment where candor and thoughtfulness can blossom. Our talent is that we can create such an environment.
