Connect | Wellington - Building Your DR Practice in Aotearoa

Join us for a monthly open evening of sharing knowledge, stories, and ideas. This month's discussion will be led by Susan Freeman-Greene who will explore the challenges of establishing yourself as a new mediator and her experiences in doing that.

Join our growing community of dispute resolvers, complaint handlers, restorative justice practitioners, lawyers, and peacemakers. We host a in-person monthly evening to share knowledge, stories, and fresh ideas and to strengthen connections across the field.

This month Susan Freeman-Greene will dive into the topic of establishing a mediation business. She'll explore those not-so-common areas that are vital to ensure that you get your new business up and running.

So if you're new to the sector and just starting out, this session is a must and is aimed to provide you some direction from someone who has been through it.
