Of Half a Half Day Event


I was up at the crack of dawn today to get into Belfast in time to chair a breakfast seminar at 8a.m. I thought no-one would show up on account of the early start and the pouring rain but I was wrong 50 times over...

The seminar topic was "Workplace Mediation in Northern Ireland". In the audience was a number of nervous looking lawyers concerned no doubt that the popularisation of mediation could damage their income. But there were other lawyers there too no doubt excited by the idea that mediation could in present no opportunities for them and new business. Is the glass half full or half empty I wondered?
