Susan North
Mediator and Facilitator
Center for Conflict Resolution (CCR)
Susan (Susie) North has an extensive background in education, both as a teacher
and as an administrator.  Her career has allowed her to observe the workings of
large organizations (schools, community groups, businesses, public agencies and
nonprofits), and to note how conflicts play out among the people involved in
those organizations.  She has found that people resolve conflicts best when they
explore win-win options that allow everyone to feel he or she got something of
value.  Susan especially enjoys working with parties who are in ongoing
relationships (neighbors, co-workers, family members) and helping them make
that relationship function better.  In addition to working in her private mediation
practice, she facilitates community meetings and mediates for Beverly Hills, CA
Small Claims Court.  Check out Susie's website at:
