January 2015 E-News Reitrto No Open AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION Section of Dispute Resolution Just Resolutions E-News Just Resolutions eNews Submission Guidelines Just Resolutions Archive ) January - WIDR Edition We hope you enjoy this month's issue of Just Resolutions. The Women in Dispute Resolution (WIDR) Committee recently presented the November, 2014 edition of the Just Resolutions Newsletter. Because of the overwhelming response to our requests for content, we were invited to present the January, 2015 edition. Thank you for joining us again! We thank all of the contributors and welcome their contributions to future newsletters. WIDR is a vibrant and active Committee of the Dispute Resolution Section. We focus on meeting the needs of new, solo, and experienced neutrals, helping them develop their business through teleconferences and articles on neutral business development, substantive innovation in dispute resolution practice, and more. Two initiatives of WI DR give an important insight into the value of joining WI DR: 1. The WI DR Membership Directory: The opportunity to be listed in the WIDR Membership Directory (updated once annually). In July, 2014, WIDR made available its first Directory of member ADR practitioners. The Directory will be disseminated by the ABA's Commission on Women in the Profession as well as being circulated by women affiliated legal groups. We hope it will be a first stop for people looking to select mediators and arbitrators to find qualified candidates. The WI DR Directory List is published on an annual basis. You need to be a member of the Dispute Resolution Section and the WIDR Committee to be included in the Directory. Registration for the next WIDR Directory will open in August 2015. 2. Dispute Resolution Roster List: Women in Dispute Resolution Committee's (WIDR) Mediation and Arbitration Roster List was created for section member neutrals, a significant number of whom may be relatively new to the field and not know of all of the roster opportunities available. The list is useful to those who are building an ADR practice as well as those who are well along. The spreadsheet list represents a first step towards a comprehensive list of potential opportunities to mediate or arbitrate, paid or unpaid, through panels, rosters, or as independents. This WIDR created resource, thanks in no small part to the efforts of Conna Weiner, is a benefit to the entire Dispute Resolution Section. Additional benefits of joining WI DR include the following: * Monthly teleconferences including substantive presentations by guest speakers; * Access to the WIDR Monthly Report which contains timely information on events and opportunities; * Regional Meetings with members designed to enhance local networking; * WIDR Webpage; * WIDR Linkedln Group; * Special networking opportunities for WIDR members at the DR Section's Annual Spring Conference; * Opportunities to Interact with Other Women's Groups within the ABA and outside the ABA; * Speaking and writing opportunities (both individual and collaborative); The Section of Dispute Resolution has announced the program for the 2015 Spring Conference in Seattle on April 16-18th, 2015. There will be a series of pre-conference leadership meetings on Wednesday, April 1 5th. On April 1 6th, the conference will start with a plenary presentation by Richard W. Pound on How ADR Has Shaped the Modern Sporting World. The Symposium on ADR in the Courts, mediation and arbitration skills development programs, and other practice area pathways are also scheduled for the 1 6th. On April 1 7th, Professor John Medina will open the day's programming with a plenary on Stress, Mediation and the Brain Science of Grief Counseling. Other programming on Friday will include the five- program Effective Advocacy and Management in Arbitration series, three programs focused on the use of the joint session in mediation, as well as a rich array of programs in every area of dispute resolution practice. Saturday's programs will include breakfast educational programs, International Workshop programs, and the Legal Educators Colloquium.
