One is the political environment as we head into an election year,” says Kenneth Cloke, director of the Center for Dispute Resolution in Santa Monica, who has been resolving disputes for years. “And this isn't just in the political arena. It also rolls over into families and relationships,” Mr. Cloke says. “There's also a lot of uncertainty about the world these days.

This week, host Mike McIlwrath presents the second and final part of his conversation with Santa Monica attorney-neutral-educator Kenneth Cloke, on "creating levels of trust between parties in conflict." Last week, Ken introduced us to the so-called "cuddle hormone," oxytocin–the release of which he says has a profound effect on mediation processes and social interaction.
International Institute for Conflict Prevention & Resolution
This week, Mike sits down with Santa Monica attorney-neutral-educator Kenneth Cloke, for the first of a two-part conversation. Ken goes in depth about mediation style and processes, but really, it's about the hormones—specifically, the "cuddle hormone," oxytocin. You’ll find out how his research into the psychology of conflict led to investigating and cataloguing the potentially profound effect the hormone has on how you deal with the person sitting across the table from you. Ken is founder and leader of Mediators Beyond Borders, a Pittsburgh nonprofit through which experienced mediators volunteer their skills world-wide to improve conflict resolution capacity and support alternative approaches to resolving interpersonal, political, economic, social, ethnic and religious differences.
