This week we are SO excited to welcome a very special guest to All Worked Up, John Westdal! John is a former employment lawyer and currently one of Ottawa’s top employment mediators. 

In this episode, our hosts pick John’s brain and talk all about the process where two sides meet and try to resolve their dispute with the help of a neutral third party. John eloquently guides us through all the ins and outs of this dispute resolution technique from a mediator’s perspective including each step of the process, how long it can take, objectives of parties involved, and the pros and cons of virtual vs. in-person mediations.
