Psychological Dimensions of Dispute Resolution
Presented by JAMS
Join JAMS Neutrals, Hon. Lynn Duryee (Ret.) and Stephen Sulmeyer, J.D., Ph.D., for a webinar on the basic concepts related to the psychology of conflict and how to apply them in practice.

The webinar will cover:
- The basic principles of psychology that are relevant to mediations, especially when it comes to understanding what’s happening when things get difficult
- How to handle your own emotions on the other end of difficult clients, lawyers and mediators
- How to identify the “emotional case”: the parties’ nonmaterial interests, core needs, and identity needs
- How to manage the legal case and the emotional case that are both fundamental components of every dispute
- The impact of Zoom
