I was once invited to mediate a wrongful death case in southern Alabama by

S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
a large national product manufacturer.

S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
Having mediated for them before,
0:09
S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
they asked if I would reach out to the opposing counsel to introduce myself and
0:14
S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)

During my initial call to counsel,
0:18
S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
I introduced myself and they invited me to arrive the day before the mediation

S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
to join them for an evening of bird hunting at their local hunting lodge.

After clearing the invitation with the product manufacturer,

I pulled out a flannel shirt,
0:32
S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
dusted off my boots,
0:34
S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
and packed hunting clothes,

along with my more formal mediation attire.

Now,
0:39
S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
not being a hunter and never having been to Alabama,
0:42
S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
my mind ran wild with images of the experiences I was about to
0:46
S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
encounter.
0:47
S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
I can only imagine the images they had of me,
0:49
S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
the city slicker mediator who had never fired a shotgun.

What transpired was a truly memorable and delightful evening of

conversation and camaraderie.

Hunting turned out to be an exercise in shooting clay pigeons,

S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
and the lodge was a one -room cabin brought to life with barbecue

and beer.

Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
My point is this,

Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
once I freed myself from stereotypical thinking and embraced the

S…
Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
culture and individuality of the people in front of me,
