Resolving Workplace Conflict
A single workplace dispute can create chaos in an otherwise functional, proactive and successful business or organisation.
Mediation is a way of managing conflict
A Mediator is an impartial person that helps team members to resolve their disagreements. The intention is to ease workplace tensions before they escalate into something more damaging. Mediation differs from disciplinary and grievance procedures by offering a structured yet informal process where parties in dispute have the opportunity to discuss their concerns and take responsibility for resolving the issues between them.
When to use Mediation
You can use mediation at any point during a conflict, as long as all of those involved agree to do so and it has been assessed as safe to conduct the Mediation by the engaged Mediator.
Generally, mediation is best used when a disagreement first arises, as the longer a dispute goes on, the greater the chances that people's relationships will break down or that they will raise formal grievances.
Mediation can be used in disagreements between members of the same team, or between co-workers at different levels of seniority. It can be particularly useful when communication between people has broken down.
