Chuck Howard to Address Houston Bar

The professional association for lawyers in the Houston area will host Charles Howard for a one-hour virtual presentation on January 23, 2023. Howard, who is the past Executive Director of IOA and author of A Practical Guide to Organizational Ombuds, will speak on "Comparing Ombuds and Mediation Services." The event is free and appears to be open to the public. 

Here's the full description of the event: 

Ombuds providers and mediators offer distinct, but similar services, which can be combined in professional practices to meet the needs of individual organizations as well as those of parties in conflict. The one-hour program will serve as an introduction to how ombuds skills can be learned and developed, and how the services are utilized and made available.
