Mr. Mehta's presentation was very engaging and very helpful. As a new mediator, starting a mediation practice can be daunting. Mr. Mehta offered sound, practical advice about building a network, relating to clients, and marketing. Everything he presented seemed manageable and possible and I was inspired to apply his wisdom to my own efforts. I have since subscribed to mediation blogs and blogs on other topics that I'm interested in, I have started my own mediation blog, and I have been talking up a storm about my career goals to whomever will listen. In addition to Mr. Mehta's mediation wisdom, what I also learned from the event was that being a mediator in NY is to be a part of a great community of people/professionals.
