Mediation

What is Mediation?

​

Mediation is a confidential Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) process where an impartial third party facilitates the communication between colleagues, supervisor and subordinate, business partners or any other combination of parties in dispute. The mediator works to assist the parties to better understand the others perspective and then helps to develop a mutually acceptable agreement.  The mediator will use various techniques to ensure the conversation is constructive. The mediation process can take just a few hours or could be a few sessions, depending upon the complexity of the issues. Hiring an external mediator helps keep the process neutral. 

​

Once both parties to the dispute agree to mediate, Call or Email to schedule a virtual or in-person mediation session.

What is Workplace Mediation?

Workplace mediation is a type of mediation where parties in dispute at an organization have an external mediator facilitate the dispute.  Workplace mediation assists Human Resource professionals and Executives from being bogged down with employee and team conflicts.  This frees up staff to focus on their many primary duties.  Workplace mediation can help to prevent lawsuits and decrease turnover rates. Mediation can occur virtually or in person at an agreed upon location.  Organizations can compel parties to the mediation, but participation is voluntary.  The mediator's job is to explain the process and help the parties feel comfortable to participate meaningfully.
