What is Mediation?
A skilled mediator acts as an impartial third party to identify the causes of conflict and resolve them by agreement
Mediation is voluntary, confidential, and comparatively inexpensive
The mediation environment facilitates an open and honest dialogue where people actively listen to each other and attempt to understand each other
Mediation is an effective means of reaching agreements between people in conflict without the need for expensive and protracted court proceedings
The parties always make all of the decisions the mediator does not make them for you
Mediation can often help repair damaged relationships between staff within a workplace and can be equally helpful in restoring damaged business relationships
Mediation can resolve issues between your business and its clients or suppliers when negotiations have failed to secure a satisfactory outcome
