Peer Consultation
& Intervision

for MiKK Mediators

MiKK is delighted to announce this New! free-of-charge service for MiKK Mediators from all over the world: Intervision & Peer Consultation (online) which takes place via Zoom on the 2nd Wednesday of every month from 19:00 to 20:30 CET (for upcoming dates see below). The sessions are open to all mediators listed with MiKK for any ongoing or completed mediations, as well as for any other mediation-related questions you may have, even if not related to a particular case. The sessions can be conducted in ENGLISH, GERMAN or in both languages (in separate groups conducted in parallel) depending on the preferences of registered participants.

In an initial consultation round, we will discuss mediation cases and then use a structured and targeted procedure to reflect on the issues raised, all the while maintaining confidentiality.

The exchange of experiences and mutual support among colleagues will enable the participants to develop a new perspective on issues, methodologies, difficulties etc., promote new ideas and insights and give fresh impetus.

Founding Member of MiKK,
Adult educator, Licensed Mediator and Trainer BM ®

Having grown up in the U.S., established herself in Berlin as a young adult and later lived and worked in Philadelphia, Brussels and Addis Ababa, Jamie brings a unique cross-cultural perspective to her role as an international family mediator and trainer. On the background of her work in adult education she has been active in the peace movement and peace education, initiating violence prevention and mediation projects in schools and communities, developing and carrying out professional mediation training programmes and advising others working in these fields.  Her varying tasks in a training and advisory capacity in the area of development cooperation have taken her to a number of countries for short-term assignments, including Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Jordan, Sri Lanka, Kosovo, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Northern Ireland and Australia. She has also published widely.

As a founding member of  MiKK, Jamie has been mediating child abduction cases since 2004 and still thrives on the challenge of dealing with high conflict situations. She very much enjoys the process of mutual consultation among colleagues: critically reflecting on the role of the mediator as well as the goals, pitfalls and potential of a particular case and finding a balance between professional distance and professional proximity.

Olav Sydow is a Berlin based lawyer with 22 years of experience and a Mikk mediator since 2013. He grew up in Germany and has lived in Los Angeles as well. After becoming a lawyer and working in family cases he noticed first-hand the shortcomings and severity of contentious court procedures on family relationships and especially children. This lead him to train and become a mediator as well. In his work as a mediator Olav has specialized in family mediations and child abduction cases where he applies his legal skills as well as his large experience in working with family conflicts to help the parties involved to resolve their issues outside of a court room and lengthy legal proceedings. After years of working in this area he is more convinced than ever that mediation is the best approach for family conflicts and child abduction cases.

Olav is Vice Chair of Mikk and has been mediating child abduction cases since 2013. He is very aware of all the difficulties in family mediations especially regarding child relocation and has initiated this project so that Mikk mediators can have a forum where they can consult with their colleagues, share their experiences and get feedback, ideas and other perspectives for their cases.
