Elder family mediation can help resolve disputes that arise regarding care, finances, health decisions and inheritance for aging parents. When important family decisions need to be made, mediation allows each person to be heard and helps the family work towards a consensus resolution. This process can strengthen family bonds and ensure professionals have support when providing services to older clients and their families. Examples that may benefit from mediation include disputes over living arrangements, medical treatment, managing assets and dividing property after a death. The goal is long-term solutions that satisfy all involved and avoid litigation or permanent damage to family relationships.

THE VARIOUS WAYS TO TACKLE WITH DIFFERENCES, CONFLICTS IN FAMILY BUSINESSVARUN KESAVAN
Differences are here to stay as a natural human phenomenon across cultures and families. In the midst of the vicissitudes of life, a family business that strives to deal with differences openly and consistently will win.
Conflicts anytime, anywhere, for any reason can be dysfunctional and disruptive. Not so with differences these can lead to creative outcomes and strengthen relationships. Differences, in fact, need to be celebrated.
Conflict starts in small ways and builds up. Today's conflict in most cases has roots in some past disagreement.
A misunderstanding avoided, may lead to spiralling differences. Differences unattended may promote conflict, simmering conflict may lead to incompatibility which may lead to separation.
It is important to nip it in the bud and open up blocked communication routes. This is, however, easier said than done, particularly when the ego plays up at a high pitch and the relationships are in a family setting.
Differences and conflict in family business erode economic value, lead to separation and fractured relationship between kith and kin, often with transgenerational consequences both for the business and the family.

3. Failure to resolve these disputes can result in
Lifetime of hard feelings
Litigation
Problem may
never be solved
4.
5. When
Any serious family issue that needs a family
decision may lend itself to elder family
mediation and strategic planning.
The threat of litigation is not necessary but a
need to feel the family can and should
resolve the issue is necessary.
Everyone in the family will be heard and
understand and hopefully support the
resolution of the problem.
6. Why
Elder Family Mediation may keep the family
together and arrive at a sensible consensus
resolution to the dispute.
7. Advantages
Less costly than
◦ litigation
◦ no decision at all
Family long range strategic plan
Not family counseling
10. Kids from first marriage complaining about
Medicaid planning
Fights about personal property among kids
◦ with a will or not
◦ tchotchkes (trinkets)
◦ not cash or even the house
11. Health
Physical, emotional, or mental decline
Health and safety concerns
Independence and self-determination versus
safety including driving.
12. Care
Disputes over placement and
cost of care for failing parent
Residence and long term care
decisions
Caregiver issues
How to compensate the
caregiver child
13. Decisions
Advance directives
who makes what decisions
Medical treatment decisions
End of life decisions
14. Finances
How to handle parents’ investment portfolio
and choice of financial advisor
Financial concerns and tax issues
Consider selling the house and other
valuable assets
15. Death
Death of spouse
Burial disputes
Inheritance disputes
16. The Rescuer
Swooping - flying in from out of town and
trying to resolve many issues in a short
period of time.
Often runs over the sibling who has provided
hands on care for some time.
18. Every professional serving elders and their
families can identify with the examples
illustrated here. If the decisions to be made
are important to the family, the elder family
mediation process may make the family
stronger than it was before the need for
mediation and at the same time allow the
professional to do a better job where all
clients are pulling together and in the same
direction.
19. Professional Serving Elders
Decisions important to the family
Process may make the family stronger
Allow the professional to do a better job
Everyone pulling together for shared goal
21. The Process
Each family has a unique, often tacit
understanding of how decisions are made
and conflicts resolved known as their
“dispute system.”
Mediation is a good way to review and
reconsider this dispute system
Consensus building model process:
◦ Convening
◦ Conflict assessment
◦ Agenda building
22. Intake
Understand the issues.
The mediator asks each family member to
provide a summary of the issues and where
they stands on each of the issues the family is
facing.
23. Private Sessions
The mediator will often meet privately in
person or on the telephone to listen to each
person’s story and gain perspective on each
family member’s perspective.
27. Avoid taking a vote and thus creating a
discontented minority
28. Periodic Consensus
Wholeheartedly agree –
Good idea
Will support –
Can live with this
Have reservations –
Want to talk
Have serious concerns –
Must talk
Cannot be part of this –
Must block it
29. Results
Happy Family
Best Care of Senior
Financial Security
Defined Goals
Plan of Action

Editor's Notes
Cartoon note: If siblings are argueing they probably did as children. They had their parents as mediators
The process should be less costly than litigation or no decision. Can become family long range strategic planning.
Kids from first marriage complaining about Medicaid planning by new spouse (despite new spouse being there for a decade or two or three). Fights about personal property among kids who are heirs; with a will or not, the fights tend to be about tchotchkes (trinkets) not cash or even the house.
their families can identify with the examples illustrated here. If the decisions to be made are important to the family, the elder family mediation process may make the family stronger than it was before the need for mediation and at the same time allow the professional to do a better job where all clients are pulling together and in the same direction.
Periodic testing of whether consensus is being created.
