Does mediation make sense for you? - 4 Mediation - Step 1.2
Check the following questions for yourself and then decide whether mediation can be a real opportunity and alternative for you.
How many hours, days or even weeks do you spend dealing with your conflict over and over again?
How much strength, nerves and time (and thus also money !) have you invested so far and would you like to continue to invest in this conflict in the future?
Without a concrete solution being foreseeable?
Do you fear health problems in the long run if the current situation continues?
Do you feel the conflict(s) as a burden? Please rate yourself on a scale of 1 ? 10 (1 = low burden / 10 = extreme burden)
Do you think that your family system, your bond with friends, your relationship with co-workers, will be damaged if the conflict continues, or will it also have positive effects?
Is your company/work suffering from the conflict?
Does the conflict/situation limit your quality of life?
Would you like to reach an out-of-court solution as quickly and confidentially as possible that is supported by all parties involved in the conflict?
Would you like to take responsibility for resolving the conflict and perhaps even increase your competence?
If you decide to engage in mediation, is this done openly and voluntarily or do you feel it is a pressure situation?
