Getting to Underlying Interests: a filmed roleplay demonstrating the mediation skills of listening effectively, reflecting back what is heard and then asking simple mediation questions to get to the core of a conflict and the underlying interests and needs of parties in a commercial business partnership dispute.
Case Scenario
Pat and Joe own a chain of fastfood cafes and are in the process of expanding the business. The last contract Joe was working on fell through and Pat was very angry with Joe about it, especially because Joe was evasive about the reasons. Pat always looked over contracts before they were signed, but he had been on holidays this time.
When negotiating a subsequent contract Joe decided he would not tell Pat about it until the contract was ready for signing. However, Pat found out about this latest contract deal and is furious that Joe had not informed him about it.
There had been other issues arising in the last year and Pat feels Joe is not pulling his weight in the business. As a result, Pat is overworked and stressed and his doctor has advised him to slow down or he would have a heart attack.
Pat decides to go to his lawyer to break up the partnership. Joe was shocked when he received a letter from the company solicitor asking him to come in for a chat as Pat wished to end their partnership. Joe is also extremely worried about the future and managed to persuade Pat to try mediation.
