I was once invited to mediate a wrongful death case in southern Alabama by
0:05
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
a large national product manufacturer.
0:07
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)
gain their confidence in advance of the mediation.
0:16
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
0:23
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
to join them for an evening of bird hunting at their local hunting lodge.

S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
After clearing the invitation with the product manufacturer,
0:30
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
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,
0:36
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
along with my more formal mediation attire.
0:38
S… Speaker 2 (1779800833222)
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.
0:53
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
What transpired was a truly memorable and delightful evening of
0:57
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
conversation and camaraderie.
0:58
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
Hunting turned out to be an exercise in shooting clay pigeons,
1:02
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
and the lodge was a one -room cabin brought to life with barbecue
1:07
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
and beer.
1:08
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
My point is this,
1:09
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
once I freed myself from stereotypical thinking and embraced the
1:13
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
culture and individuality of the people in front of me,
1:16
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
I had established a connection that served as a solid platform on which
1:20
S… Speaker 1 (1779800833222)
to begin the next day's mediation.
