Transformative mediation looks at conflict as a crisis in communication. Success is not measured by settlement but by the parties shifts toward a personal strength, b interpersonal responsiveness, c constructive interaction, d new understandings of themselves and their situation, e critically examining the possibilities, f feeling better about each other, and g making their own decisions.
Those decisions can include settlement agreements or not. Transformative mediation practice is focused on supporting empowerment and recognition shifts, by allowing and encouraging deliberation, decision-making, and perspective-taking.
A competent transformative mediator practices with a microfocus on communication, identifying opportunities for empowerment and recognition as those opportunities appear in the parties own conversations, and responding in ways that provide an opening for parties to choose what, if anything, to do with them.
