AI compass for mediation, coaching and counselling?

• Mediation, coaching and counselling take place in a different context today than they did 10 years ago.
• We and our clients use tools that were unthinkable five years ago. Our training, mental concepts and practical interventions will (have to) adapt to this.
• But not only our counselling environment, but also our business environment has already changed considerably: Anyone who works successfully and happily as a mediator, coach or counsellor today can be sure that circumstances and conditions have contributed to this that no longer exist today.
• The impact of this change on training in mediation, coaching and counselling (of people) cannot be estimated at the present time.
• Our routines in training and counselling are more for our mental well-being („Hide“), but by no means for cleverly navigating this unknown terrain, which hardly seems worth exploring today because it threatens to be completely different tomorrow.

Nevertheless, the AI compass wants to make steps possible.

Because those who learn to move in the unknown today,

is in good practice for tomorrow.
