Workplace mediators (like everyone else) have had to rapidly adapt and apply their skills in new and different ways. This session will unveil new research undertaken by the University of Cardiff on how workplace and employment mediation has been working in practice during the pandemic and sharing views of those working in this area. This will highlight what has changed in the way mediation is being conducted, the challenges or opportunities that this presents and how this has impacted on the take up/demand for informal resolution interventions and success rates.

We will also be sharing the views and experiences of practicing mediators in relation to both workplace and employment mediation. This will include reflections on the nature of the conflicts that have arisen, experiences of how conflict resolution has worked during these difficult times, what we have learnt, and what opportunities this may present to further demonstrate the benefits and value of informal conflict resolution.

Speakers

Deborah Hann and David Nash – Cardiff Business School

Alison Love – Managing Director Resolution at Work Limited

Caroline Sheridan – CEO Sheridan Resolutions Limited

Featured Case Studies

Group Conflict – Conflicts between teams

It is not uncommon for conflict to arise between different teams. This can have considerable impact on both individuals and performance. A number of approaches can be used in this sort of scenario, including neutral assessment, team facilitation and group mediation.

Conflict Coaching – Shareholder/Director dispute

Agreement could not be reached to enter into mediation in this situation and therefore coaching was an alternative support provided to one of the parties. The relationship between a majority shareholder and a shareholder/director was causing conflict. The relationship would be ok at times but disagreements would flare up from time to time and this was beginning to impact on the business.
