It’s always been an absolute pleasure to work with Dionne. She is always professional, prompt to respond and looking for a constructive outcome in every situation. We have greatly appreciated the work she has done for us. Working with witnesses in what can often be challenging circumstances requires a high level of emotional intelligence and skill. Throughout Dionne managed every meeting with professionalism and sensitivity, working towards a constructive outcome for all parties. Her communication was prompt and focussed and allowed the company to entrust her with managing a complex situation greatly enhancing the value to the business and to managers involved. This is an incredibly challenging environment and Resolution at work and, Dionne in particular, have delivered for the company without fail. The value gained from being able to trust Dionne/Resolution at Work to manage complex casework has been immensely valuable to the organisation. It gives an independent and professional credibility to the process and enhances the reputation of the business as a result.
