Mediation is a link between two or more disputing parties, wishing to settle their differences.
Afsana’s approach to a successful mediation is to ensure that the needs and interests of each party is adequately met. She is methodical during her mediations, which helps her to understand and acknowledge the reason for the conflict. She is committed to ensuring each party has an opportunity to convey their issues without criticism or intimidation, which leads to more open and productive conversations. She brings collaborative thinking and over a decade of negotiation experience to every mediation. When parties are not able to find a resolution meeting their expectations, Afsana will demonstrate her creativity and thorough understanding of the situation to suggest a fair resolution.
Afsana encourages parties to listen to each other and to be open to persuasion during negotiations. She believes that if you are open to persuasion, you are more likely to be successful in persuading the other side. Most often, this leads to a successful result.
