Additional Information

M.E.E.T. gained momentum in 2000 as an extension of F.A.I.R. to provide a behavioral skills model specifically for resolving conflicts driven by cultural differences--differences that traditional conflict resolution and problem-solving models do not take into account.  M.E.E.T. is based on research into stress-reducing communications, helping to minimize the "fight or flight" response and encouraging calm, considered discussion of conflicts that arise from diversity.

Combined, F.A.I.R. and M.E.E.T. provide a complete curriculum for organizations making the shift from reactive to proactive management of inclusion.  These proven, best practice models help support high-performing teams, foster collaboration and drive innovation for a powerful competitive advantage.
