Live Presentation:
Pending Ethics CLE credit application!
The Rule 114 Code of Ethics states that “A neutral shall serve
as a neutral only when she/he has the necessary qualifications to satisfy the
reasonable expectations of the parties.” The 1997 comments include the following
additional insight; “A person who offers neutral services gives parties and the
public the expectations that she or he is competent to serve effectively as a
neutral.” Building on last year’s presentation that raised the question as to
whether “whiteness is embedded in mediation,” this year, Dr. T. Anansi Wilson
and Professor Sharon Press will offer their thoughts on how competence must
include cultural competence and then explore what that means as applied to ADR
neutrals.
