Disputants who engage in talks primarily via e-mail will miss out on the cues they would receive from body language , facial expressions, and other in-person signals. Long-distance talks are prone to misunderstandings and also lack the rapport and warmth of face-to-face talks.
Finally, given that disputants often choose local mediators via word of mouth, they may be less trusting of mediators whom they choose somewhat arbitrarily online. Of course, serious online mediation training and substantive expertise are critical, as a keen analytic skill. But according to a survey by Northwestern University law professor Stephen Goldberg, veteran mediators believe that establishing rapport is more important to effective online mediation than employing specific meditation techniques and tactics.
Before people are willing to settle, they must feel that their interests are truly understood. Only then can a mediator reframe problems and float creative solutions. A detached observer or the parties themselves might have very different explanations.

This research offers two lessons for negotiators —including those who must resolve disputes and make deals without the help of a third party.

The other is that a hallmark of an artful process is that others do not feel maneuvered or manipulated. How has technology helped your online mediation skills?
