Information regarding the Division I Program in the Bahamas

The Division 1 program for the Mid-Winter meeting, entitled "How to Catch Flies – With Honey or a Fly Swatter?  Negotiation Tactics and Strategies," will consist of a panel discussion of various negotiation strategies and tactics designed to assist in the favorable resolution of disputes.  Panelists will include Frank Adams, Interface Consulting International Inc., Houston, TX;  Devon Coughlan, Conflict Solutions, Raymond, ME;  and George Meyer, Carlton Fields PA, Tampa, FL.  Scott Griffith of Griffith Davison & Shurtleff PC in Dallas, TX will moderate.

The decision of how one should approach and handle a dispute, especially when engaging the opposing party, can mean the difference between success and failure from a settlement perspective.  As with first impressions, the approach you take can have lasting consequences and will certainly impact the probability of a successful resolution.  Whether you have been negotiating disputes for years, or are still learning the ropes, we welcome you to join Division 1 in what will undoubtedly be a lively, informal discussion lead by an esteemed panel of experts in the field of negotiation strategies and techniques.

See you at Paradise Island!
