Mediation is more than just an alternative dispute resolution (ADR).
More globally, mediation pertains to a state of mind.
Mediation does not only constitue an efficient management tool to solve some disputes.
Mediation also permits managers to handle the negotiation process and the execution of contracts.
Despite the European directive 2008/52/EC of 21 May 2008 on certain aspects of mediation in civil and commercial matters, mediation is not yet sufficiently used in Europe.
Howcome?
Because mediation is not yet sufficiently known.
Mediation should be explained by lawyers, taught by teachers, discussed between managers.
This alternative dispute resolution is not opportune for any and all disputes, but it may be particularly advantageous for certain disputes.
Thus, it is necessary to know mediation, to understand its characteristics so that one may decide, with awareness, to have recourse to it or to renounce to it.
