Tim Connellan from Pacific Mediation explains how many major corporates and government departments are devoting more and more resources to ensuring the workplace is as harmonious an environment as possible.
This can be in the form of up skilling employees with in-house training or by engaging external consultants.

Mediation seems to have burst into the consciousness in recent times. Can you remember it being an option a few years ago but now it seems to be everywhere. Friends with marital disputes are going to mediation, the papers report workplace and commercial disputes solved by mediation and the TV news last week reported that the US and Iran are in mediation over their nuclear programme.

So what is Mediation?

Forgetting international disputes for the moment and focussing on the sort of dispute we might be involved in that traditionally might “go to court” or be resolved by a workplace enquiry or other process, it
may be easiest to explain what mediation is by asking this question: “If there were two methods of resolving a dispute, which would be preferable?”

In addition to providing dispute resolution skills, it will improve participants ability to negotiate both on their own behalf or
when providing assistance for others.
By attending this workshop you will become competent and confident
to facilitate mediations.
