Mediation is a form of dispute resolution, which is an alternative to litigation. It is often cheaper and may resolve the dispute within hours or a day, on-line, or in-person, enabling you to focus on transforming the future.
​My expertise in equality and whistleblowing workplace disputes, my leadership of people, combined with my training in organisational psychological safety brings to bear decades of experience, insight, learning and empathy. This enables me to understand the dynamics and impact of power-relationships on conflict and breakdowns in relationships.
​
I can empathise with and facilitate a sustainable resolution, despite what may appear to be intractable tensions. My founder/owner business and operational experience brings an understanding of commercial reality to any dispute.
​
Being personable, curious and creative, I build rapport and put people at ease. My rigour and litigation experience enables me to assimilate lots of information, grasp the context quickly, ask probing questions and communicate with each side clearly to focus on what matters to you to achieve a resolution.
​
I have specialist expertise in workplace and civil disputes but I also undertake commercial and community disputes. My international accreditation provides quality assurance of my standards and approach, which you should always seek in any mediator.

I am a member of the Mediators Green Alliance committed to reducing the carbon footprint of mediations by holding paperless, online mediations and restricting travel wherever possible.
