‘This book is a perfect navigational aid for the mediation journey. Whether you're encountering a big storm or heavy rain, the "Toolkit Mediation - Generating Outcome" provides sensible guidance for navigating through any situation. Finally, you may reach the "New World—successful settlement." With the second edition now including co-mediation, online mediation, and tips from neuroscience, I feel confident in my ability to tackle any mediation journey.’

‘I usually take it with me into my mediations as well, as it is very helpful to have at hand and easy to access and use “in situ” (e.g., during a quick five minute break).’

Jeremy Lack, Lawyer and ADR neutral Switzerland

‘How many times have exasperated negotiators and mediators wondered: How on earth can I get the negotiators to make progress in THIS situation? Take a moment for quiet reflection, pull out the Toolkit, and use its smart cross-referencing system to hit on the tool you need.’

Michael Leathes, Former Director International Mediation Institute

‘New mediators will welcome the tools and learn wisdom from using them. Experienced mediators will dare to think creatively outside the box by going inside this toolbox and experimenting. In short, the Toolkit is a gem that will help to advance the mediation profession.’

Professor Jacqueline Nolan-Haley, Fordham University Law School, USA

‘Another book on #mediation and #negotiation?

Yes, I know what you are thinking. Thats what I thought too. At the same time this book is different. Different from all the other books out there. I am talking about the book from Manon Schonewille of Mundi Mediatores "Toolkit mediation, generating outcomes as a mediator and negotiator". What makes the book so good? Let's dive into it.

Firstly, the book talks about all the aspects in mediation and negotiation, from planning, cultural aspects to dealing with difficult conversations. 

Secondly, the book gives you a nice rundown about all kinds of resources, ready to use in your own practice. It even gives you sample agreements!

Thirdly, proper research has been done on all the elements discussed in the books. Manon is not only telling you about it she also refers to the research which you can find in the back of the book.

Lastly, if you still were not convinced, the well-thought use of symbols which makes it easier to navigate through the book and cater this way to your needs. 

I believe that Manon has set the standard on the core elements in these disciplines with her book. If you want to buy this book, you will not regret it.

If you only want to purchase one book about the essence of mediation and negotiation, this is the one. Well explained, proper research and easy to read.’
