Mediation

Summary & Method(s):
Mediation is an informal yet structured and private way for people to work through disagreements and working relationships. The voluntary process encourages solutions that are acceptable to all participants. Impartial mediators guide people through a step-by-step process, which allows a candid and thorough exploration of the issues and options. Most people who elect to mediate find lasting solutions and move toward a more satisfactory, even fulfilling, future.

Expect as a Client:
Objectivity: A trained conflict resolution specialist will listen to each party’s concerns. This impartial “third party” will help the participants assess the situation and develop options and approaches for improvement and sustainability.
A Plan: Difficult and complex conflict situations often necessitate more than one mediation session. Consistency with Cline Consulting will help ensure that the parties have the best chance of developing solutions to their situation that move them forward.
Real solutions: Solutions generated from the people involved are more satisfying and durable than imposed settlements.
Less tension: Increased and effective communication improves working relationships and job performance.
