In anticipation of teaching mediators in India,
0:03
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
I was presented with the opportunity to observe a local mediation at
0:07
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
the Community Mediation Center in Bangalore.
0:09
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
The mediator was crammed into a small room with the disputing family
0:13
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
members along with an extensive gathering of interested relatives.
0:17
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
The dispute?
0:18
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
A sister's right to inherit property from her deceased parents and
0:23
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
supported by new laws favoring partition.
0:26
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
Across the table,
0:27
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
her older brothers,
0:28
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
objecting to her inheritance and fueled by a centuries
0:32
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
-old tradition of real property succession to male offspring only.
0:36
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
The mediator began the process by calming the parties
0:40
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
with their soft tone and relaxed demeanor.
0:42
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
The parties then presented their positions,
0:45
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
often in loud,
0:46
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
angry voices,
0:47
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
interrupted intermittently by the objections or support of various aunts
0:52
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
and uncles.
0:53
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
This process played itself out over the next several hours before the mediator
0:57
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
was able to get the parties to agree on an acceptable division of property,
1:01
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
which they then proceeded to reduce to a written agreement.
1:04
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
Truly a classic mediation that could have played out anywhere
1:08
S… Speaker 2 (1779720932101)
in the world.
1:09
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
Did I forget to mention?
1:12
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
The mediation was conducted entirely in the party's native dialect,
1:16
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
and I didn't understand a single spoken word.
1:19
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
Yet, by attending to context,
1:22
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
facial expression,
1:23
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
tone,
1:24
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
and a rich variety of body language,
1:27
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
I was able to capture the essence of the communication.
1:29
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
By training ourselves to be better students of communication,
1:33
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
Whether that means becoming a more effective listener,
1:36
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
becoming more skilled in the art of questioning,
1:39
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
or simply learning to pay closer attention to the nonverbal messages that
1:43
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
surround us,
1:43
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
learning to more effectively manage all aspects of communication lies
1:48
S… Speaker 1 (1779720932101)
at the core of the value we bring to the mediation table.
