Workplace mediation & conflict resolution - how we can help.
We find the path through workplace disputes, whether before or after they crystallise. Our expert team can mediate fragile or broken relationships, investigate concerns and complaints or make decisions on your behalf around allegations of wrongdoing.
We are comfortable with difficult issues, always treating people with kindness and respect.
Whilst people issues can be addressed internally in most cases, it’s not always possible. Conflicts of interest can prevent an internal solution, or the scale of the issue requires an external dedicated resource. Our highly specialised team have extensive experience covering the private, public, charitable and union sectors. We can help with interventions best suited to your needs.
