MEDIATION
Mediation is a facilitative process. A neutral third party — the mediator — assists parties in their efforts to negotiate a solution to a dispute. The dispute is not cast in a legal framework. Rather, the mediator manages a party-centred process that focusses on the parties’ interests and their co-operation. The mediator does not determine or decide between the parties. Parties reach their own solutions, framing them in a mediated agreement. Because parties reach their own “yes”, mediated agreements have a high compliance rate.

CONFLICT MANAGEMENT
Conflict can be disruptive. Distrust grows, communication ceases. Differences entrench and become positional. The costs of conflict can be significant, even though some, such as poor work environments or tarnished reputation, may be difficult to quantify. The ongoing diagnosis of potential causes for conflict can avoid or mitigate the risk of conflict, while the early detection of conflict, together with appropriate management strategies, can (cost-) effectively limit the direct and indirect impact of conflict. First-class conflict management is the answer.
