Abstract

In order to establish the context of this study, this chapter explores the mediation literature regarding interpersonal conflict, including the possibility that conflict can trigger personal and relational improvement, and highlights mediation’s potentials in inducing such positive change. Under each section the chapter explores the current state of research on relational changes in mediation in different case groups and mediation models. Through these arguments, Chap. 2 demonstrates the need for interpretative qualitative studies on mediation, and on workplace mediation in particular, as the rationale for this study.
