As a result, I think that for us mediation is more likely to be useful much earlier in the process, as disputes are only beginning and before they have really had a chance to heat up. This would require watching more closely for situations where mediation can help, and a more interventionist approach from the mediators, rather than waiting for cases to come to them.
Now you're talking. I think this would solve one half of the problem, by getting in early - though I still think mediators could do with a bit of help learning some skills.
