I'm excited to announce that I'll be speaking at the American Bar Association’s Labor and Employment Law Section's 2025 State and Local Government Bargaining & Employment Law Committee Midwinter Meeting in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, from January 30 to February 1, 2025. This event brings together thought leaders, advocates, and neutrals from across the country to discuss key developments in public sector labor and employment law.
I'm honored to present on:
📌 "Effective Use of Mediation in Labor Relations"
Sharing insights and strategies for leveraging mediation (and med/arb) in collective bargaining, grievance arbitration, and unfair labor practice disputes.
📌 "Novel and Hot Topics in Public Sector Collective Bargaining and Interest Arbitration in 2024"
Discussing cutting-edge issues at the bargaining table, including gender affirmation trends, AI and technology developments, DEI considerations, and social-political matters.
This meeting promises to be an incredible opportunity to learn, connect, and exchange ideas in one of the most beautiful destinations.
✨ If you're interested in attending, you can find more information and register through the ABA's official page:
I look forward to connecting with fellow professionals and sharing insights on these important topics.
