Personal Empowerment. People who negotiate their own settlements often feel more powerful than those who use surrogate advocates, such as lawyers, to represent them. Mediation negotiations can provide a forum for learning about and exercising personal power or influence (Xxxx, Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx, 1980). Preservation of an Ongoing Relationship or Termination of a Relationship in a More Amicable Way Many disputes occur in the context of relationships that will continue over future years. A mediated settlement that addresses all parties' interests can often preserve a working relationship in ways that would not be possible in a win/lose decision-making procedure. Mediation can also make the termination of a relationship more amicable. Workable and Implementable Decisions Parties who mediate their differences are able to attend to the fine details of implementation. Negotiated or mediated agreements can include specially tailored procedures for how the decisions will be carried out. This fact often enhances the likelihood that parties will actually comply with the terms of the settlement. Agreements that are Better than Simple Compromises or Win/Lose Outcomes Interest-based mediated negotiations can result in settlements that are more satisfactory to all parties than simple compromise decisions. Decisions that Hold Up Over Time Mediated settlements tend to hold up over time, and if a later dispute results, the parties are more likely to utilize a cooperative forum of problem- solving to resolve their differences than to pursue an adversarial approach (Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx, 1984; Xxxxxxxx, 1973; Xxxxxxx, 1986).
