“Interesting and very different mindset from when I went to law school and began practicing. Good change.”

Attorney

“Erin has taught me to truly listen to opposite opinions instead of turning them off when I disagree. I’ve also been able to apply this to my personal life and listening and trying to understand a different perspective has brought for a more peaceful environment when difficult issues present themselves - especially during lockdown. This really works for me.”

Journalist

“Mindful negotiation helps focus attention and energy away from personal dynamics and performance to finding a common goal.”

Law Firm Partner
