Niching can feel scary. Maybe you’ve worried about turning people away, missing opportunities, or “leaving money on the table.” But the truth is, your niche is not a limitation, it’s the key to standing out, attracting the right clients, and building a business that feels aligned with who you are.

This is a conversation full of “aha” moments and golden nuggets that will inspire you to focus your energy where it matters most: on the clients and work that light you up.

Why so many professionals resist choosing a niche (and why that fear is holding you back).

A step-by-step process to reflect, refine, and test your niche so it feels authentic to you.

As a leading online dispute resolution professional, by far one of the most common questions that I hear is how do you establish rapport with participants or manage difficult emotions in an online proceeding when everyone is remote from each other?

Find out why the pre-mediation conference(s) with the parties is more important than ever in a virtual mediation.
What is the question that most mediators miss asking?
How does the acronym BEACH help you to find out what is important to your participants?
What percentage of our communication is through our expression, intonation vs. the words we say?
What happens to emotional intensity when participants are not in the same room?
Why are the attorneys in mediation often more challenging emotionally to work with than the clients?
Dr. Debra is a veteran of hundreds of workplace and family mediations herself, both in person and online, so she is the perfect person to help us all to create that "personal touch" online - be sure to listen before your next online dispute resolution proceeding!

Needless to say, she is attracted to the legal mind, its intellect, and ability to solve legal problems...she just wants to see advancement in their ability to deal with people problems!
Preparation is Everything: How to Properly Get Clients Ready for Virtual Dispute Resolution on The Learn to Mediate Online Podcast with Susan Guthrie, Esq. #109
Episode 9
Tuesday, May 26, 2020 • Duration 27:09
They say that when you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail and in the world of virtual mediation and online dispute resolution this is especially true! In this episode, online mediation expert, Susan Guthrie, walks mediators and attorneys through the important steps that should be taken to prepare clients for a virtual mediation. The true path to a successful resolution starts long before the first mediation session actually begins and the attorney bears much of the responsibility for making sure the client is ready to go when they click the link to join the meeting. The client needs to know what practical information they need in advance, such as the programs being used and the equipment and set up that they will need to participate. Then there are all the process factors and issues of privacy and confidentiality to be communicated and understood. Finally, advocates should be aware of the potential for unconscious bias against an unprepared client.
There is a famous quote that says "give me 6 hours to cut down a tree, and I will spend the first four hours sharpening the axe." Preparing your client for mediation is the same and much of an attorney's effort should properly be focused on the process before the mediation begins. Don't get caught with a dull axe - LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE TODAY!
