Mardi Edelstein, BA Hons, QMed, AccFM is an accredited family mediator, group facilitator, educator and communication & conflict coach, and owner of Spectra Mediation.
She has a diverse and creative background, starting in the arts, and moving into business, where as Marketing Director for Canada for a US company she humanized and revolutionized customer service, pioneered meaning-marketing, and innovated sales/marketing collaboration with results outpacing the more leveraged US. Always a facilitator, and mediating family and cross-cultural issues in her faith community, in 2008 she formally established herself as a family and organizational mediator & conflict coach.
Over the past 12 years, she has coached and taught communication, negotiation and mediation skills to over 2000 adult, youth and senior learners both privately and for several trainers, including York University’s School of Continuing Studies (Core DR, Advanced Court Practicum & Family Mediation courses).
Mardi has found that through keen insight into our humanity, respectfully applied, she has been able to help resolve emotion-laden conflicts and both commercial and family cases deemed by Judges as ‘unlikely to settle’. It is part of her mission to help the field of mediation increase its emotional intelligence, stay true to its intent and achieve the better solutions that we intend.

Practopia Session Details
Practopia Session 1 A hard case for soft skills. Mediating & resolving through human insight Session 1 will set the philosophical basis for the course and start to build a framework and toolbox for any style of mediation or restorative process. |
Practopia Session 2 Keeping it Interest-Based … from Intake to Settlement (and why $$$ gets positional & how to stop it) Once we do our interest-based work to understand the problem, how often do we snap back to positional bargaining when the options start to flow? How do we prevent this from happening and assist clients to come up with creative, fearless and innovative interest-based solutions that leave no one feeling significantly compromised? |
Practopia Session 3 Delivering on the Promise … facilitating a learning conversation We describe mediation to our clients as “an assisted negotiation or conversation”, yet how often do we deliver on that promise? How many times do our clients get to the stage where they are having conversations and searching together for solutions? We will learn techniques and approaches to change the dynamics at the table from having 2 conversations to truly facilitating one. Through role play and exercises, we will focus on understanding and learning as the key activity, and on the clients as partners in problem-solving. We will explore ways to prepare clients for mediation to make them better participants, and methods to pre-empt common barriers to communication, empowering them with new insights, empathy and skills to ensure greater levels of success in the mediation and forward into their lives. (Includes group exercises and role play) |
