From the Paper:
"Mediation skills include excellent communication skills, which are needed in order to help others listen and express themselves. Other skills include the ability to build trust, to anticipate and unblock impasses, and to balance the power differences among team members, thus ensuring that the team as a whole achieves the best possible results. In addition, a mediator must have the patience to fully explore the needs and perspectives of all participants without rushing to a solution."Sample of Sources Used:
