Douglas E. Noll, JD, MA, left a successful career as a trial lawyer to become a
peacemaker. His calling is to serve humanity, and he executes his calling at many levels.\xa0
He is an award-winning author, teacher, trainer, and a highly experienced mediator. Doug\u2019s
work carries him from international work to helping people resolve deep interpersonal and
ideological conflicts to training life inmates to be peacemakers and mediators in maximum-
security prisons.
He was born nearly deaf, nearly blind, crippled with two club feet, and left-handed. Despite
this, he learned how to learn and ultimately became a lawyer-turned-peacemaker, best-
selling author of four books, speaker, visionary, and teacher. He is the co-founder of Prison
of Peace ( www.prisonofpeace.org ), training murderers in maximum security prisons how to
be peacemakers and mediators in their prison communities.
He teaches thought leaders and business leaders how to use their emotions as part of
their hidden genius. One of the ways he does this is by teaching people how to listen to
others into existence.\xa0

\u201cThe best way to communicate with others is with emotions.\u201d
