We're not sure whether mediators really share the "deeply felt need to be of service" that the authors of Becoming a Mediator: Your Guide to Career Opportunities ascribe to them, but there's no doubting that it's a growing field, one that more and more businesses and individuals are calling upon.
Conflict resolution, after all, isn't just for war-torn nations - it can come in handy in all sorts of business situations that call for a win-win situation, which is where mediation excels (and arbitration, it's more court-like cousin, does not). The authors describe the exact nature of mediation and help readers determine if they would make good mediators, and then offer plenty of practical tips for the mediation process itself.
