Public policy think tank Civic Exchange invites you to an interactive session with Mark Gerzon on 19 March 2007.
Mark Gerzon is the author of Leading Through Conflict: How Successful Leaders Transform Differences Into Opportunities. For the past twenty years, he has served as president of Mediators Foundation, and for the last three years as a consultant to the United Nations Development Program. He is currently working with several global partners to develop a Global Leadership Program with a special emphasis on preventing conflict. Mark Gerzon has researched the qualities of leaders who have been effective leading across complex social, economic, racial, national and ideological divides. He calls these leaders “mediators” (as opposed to demagogues and managers).
During this interactive session, Mark Gerzon will explore the deeper meaning of the term”global leadership” and focus on the specific leadership skills that mediators use to deal creatively with deep, and potentially divisive, differences.
