Mark Bamford 

 

I have a very diverse background, ranging from engineering to business to law to academia.  I believe that this diverse experience enables me to be an effective mediator and advisor to those in conflict. 

 

I've has been a mediator since 2005 and have experience in resolving organizational conflict, family conflict, and court-related disputes.  A former consultant at PA Consulting (Pugh-Roberts) and CSC/Index, I also have consulted to major corporations, as well as many non-profit organizations, and have experience in helping clients address a range of strategic and operational issues.

 

I am an adjunct professor at Boston University School of Law and Tufts University, where I teach courses on negotiation and conflict resolution.  I've taught at the Boston University School of Law since 2010.  From 2010 to 2013, I was a clinical professor in the law school’s Civil Litigation Program, where I supervised second and third year law students in a variety of civil litigation matters and taught Pre-Trial Advocacy and Trial Advocacy  I've taught Negotiation at Boston University since 2012  and Alternative Dispute Resolution since 2013.  Since 2014, I've also taught at the Tufts Gordon Institute and serve as a faculty advisor for students' Capstone Leadership Projects and Summer Practicums.

 

In pursuit of my mission to help individuals, organizations, and communities resolve conflict, I offer mediation, facilitation and negotiation and conflict coaching services.  I am guided by three core values:    

 

  • Dogged commitment to helping you achieve your goals

  • Humility in the realization that you know far more than I do about the situation at hand and that we have much to learn from each other 

  • Respect for the inherent worth of all individuals and belief that everyone has something worthwhile to contribute

​

My undergraduate degree is from Tufts University (B.S. Mechanical Engineering, 1985).  I went to business school at the MIT Sloan School of Management (S.M. Management, 1991) and law school at Boston University School of Law (J.D., cum laude, 2000).
