Connie mediates divisive conflicts inhibiting nonprofit operations. Connie has a unique perspective of nonprofits: as a lawyer to nonprofits, an Executive Director, a member of the Board of Directors, and as a mediator for nonprofit conflicts. She has mediated serious disputes between board members, staff members, and partner nonprofits. As a manager of a small legal aid firm with chief financial, grant, HR, board management and legal services delivery operations, she has lived the inside role of challenge-juggling. As a commercial lawyer at Orr & Reno for troubled and successful organizations alike, the problem-solving role was a natural springboard into mediating disputes toward resolution.
Connie is a mediator serving parties privately, and for the American Arbitration Association, NH Probate, Superior, Business and the United States District Courts, the NH Agricultural Mediation Panel and other organizations in New England. Note that she does not provide legal advice as mediator of disputes. For more about Connie, visit http://rakowskymediation.com/
