Resolution

Workplace conflict resolution,mediation and investigations.

When it matters most.

Independent, impartial and experienced. We help organisations resolve workplace conflict, conduct workplace investigations and find a way through the most sensitive people challenges – before, during and after issues arise.

Our services

For over two decades we have helped organisations navigate workplace conflict, people risk and culture challenges that sit at the heart of performance and reputation. We work in the space between legal risk, human emotion and workplace dynamics – where the reality is often messy and the stakes are high.

We are independent. Where internal resource creates a conflict of interest or the scale of an issue demands external expertise, we step in – impartial, experienced and focused on the best possible outcome with minimum disruption.

My experience with byrne·dean was excellent. They were professional, directed, cost conscious, and performed the tasks they were given with sensitivity and objectivity. They handled a challenging assignment in a timely fashion, within budget and produced a work product that exceeded our expectations.
