The Alternative Dispute Resolution Section of the State Bar of Michigan’ 2026 ADR Spring Series will be held virtually over two days. On Tuesday, March 31, “The Art of Impasse Breaking in Mediation’ will be offered online from 9 to 1 p.m.
This interactive workshop covers a range of impasse-breaking techniques, building on speaker David A. Hoffman’s recently released book, which describes 60 such interventions. The workshop will include small group discussion, videos, and role-plays, and will also focus on impasse prevention and negotiation pitfalls.
Course materials include excerpts from Hoffman’s book, published by the American Bar Association, “The Art of Impasse-Breaking in Mediation: A Handbook for Mediators, Lawyers, and Other Conflict Resolvers.”
Cost for the online program is $50 for section members and $75 for non-members. For additional information and to register, visit https://connect.michbar.org/adr/home.
