The Stitt Feld Handy Group is an Alternative Dispute Resolution firm specializing in professional development training and dispute resolution services.

Training

The Stitt Feld Handy Group conducts four-day public workshops on negotiation, mediation and dispute resolution (ADR).  We use an interactive approach, as participants learn by doing rather than by listening to lectures.  We strive to give our workshop participants the skills and confidence to Expect Success.

We have trained over 17,000 people in mediation, negotiation and communication skills.  Our workshops are conducted in North America, Europe, Africa, Australia, and Asia.  We have held workshops in Barbados since 1998.

Upon completion of our public workshops, participants earn a Certificate from the University of Windsor, Faculty of Law (Canada). 
We design and conduct customised workshops for clients in both the private and public sectors.  We work closely with our clients to develop a curriculum that works for them.  We offer a broad range of customised professional development programmes, including negotiation, mediation, and dealing with difficult people. The members of the Stitt Feld Handy Group are alternative dispute resolution trainers, mediators, arbitrators, and negotiation consultants.
 
"My organization has benefited significantly from the training.  I've witnessed practical application of the techniques learnt. Personally the training has enhanced my negotiation and mediation skills. I would recommend this training to top executives and IR and HR professionals"
Candace Browne, Banks Holdings Ltd., St. Michael, Barbados

Having just moved from Toronto to Oregon, it was a very interesting series of negotiations to get us there in one piece.

 

Online Dispute Resolution coming
Last week I attended an online dispute resolution (ODR) conference in Victoria BC. One thing that was clear coming out of the conference is that ODR is coming.
