RESEARCH
Prior to becoming a lawyer, Mel Mobley earned a Ph.D. and directed a research center at Emory and continues research into the influence of social psychological factors on the success of mediation. Feel free to review our research, or contact Accord Mediation for more information.
COMMUNITY CONVERSATIONS
Even with corporate training available for diversity and inclusion, a need exists for smaller conversations about race and racism. Accord Mediation can provide a place, time, and structure for such conversations at no charge with a trained facilitator.
