For Mediators
Positions are what people say they want. The relational dynamics underneath are why they're stuck.
You sit between people who have rehearsed their grievances and dug into their positions. You know that movement won't come from splitting the difference — it comes from shifting how the parties see the problem. Rapport7 gives you the strategic frameworks to read what's actually happening and create the conditions for movement.
