Our special guest this week, Tracey Frisch, Division Vice President, AAA & Executive Director, AAA-ICDR Foundation
will present on:
Advancing Mediation Through Innovation
In this episode, we sit down with Tracey Frisch to explore the evolving landscape of mediation practice. We will cover topics like a look at agreements to mediate and the AAA's new tool designed to streamline this critical step in the process. Hear about Tracey's personal origin story—tracing a path in conflict resolution back to serving as a peer mediator in high school, and how that early experience shaped a lifelong commitment to the field. And get an inside look at the AAA-ICDR Foundation's current focus on integrating mediation into alternative crisis response initiatives, a fascinating frontier where mediation principles are being applied to some of today's most pressing challenges.
