Respect My Privacy: An Argument for Legal Professional Privilege in Ombuds Communications

Gyde, Matthias 11 January 2019 (has links)
Since the latter part of the twentieth century there has been a push to promote the use of various forms of alternative dispute resolution to ease the pressure on America’s overburdened and backlogged court system. Ombuds offices are often used as a tool to help resolve issues and disputes within organizations at an informal level. For these offices to be maximally effective they need to guarantee those who seek their assistance an extremely high degree of confidentiality. To that end, and to further the overall goal of settling disputes outside of the court system, a legally sanctioned professional privilege for ombuds communications should be implemented. The granting of this privilege would not only allow the ombudsperson to perform their duties free from concern of being forced to violate best practices, but it would also give those seeking services peace of mind that their concerns will not be made public.

Incivility and Abrasive Conduct in Institutions of Higher Learning and the Ombuds Role

Escalante, Hector 01 January 2018 (has links)
Current research indicates that abrasive conduct or incivility is on the rise in higher education and Ombuds are in a unique position to address this behavior. By applying transcendental phenomenological methodology to examine Ombuds experience when handling these types of cases and how the complex structures of higher education impact what they do, this study provides insights into how other institutions and organizations can address the rise in abrasive conduct amongst university faculty, staff and students. I interviewed ten university Ombuds experienced with cases of incivility, and I asked them open-ended questions regarding how they define and identify abrasive conduct. I also asked them questions regarding their roles and how they work within the structure of academia. I analyzed the data gathered from these interviews using Moustakas’ (1994) modification of the Van Kaam Method. Four common themes emerged from the data analysis. The four theses are listed below: The Visitor’s story is the Ombuds experience How Ombuds define and identify abrasive conduct The powerful impact of the academic structure Guiding dynamics and the role of the Ombuds The results of this research provide insight to Ombuds and organizations regarding how the Ombuds role can help identify, address and prevent abrasive conduct.
