On behalf of the management of WesTrac, I would like to thank you and your team for the valuable assistance given to us in determining the content and facilitating the cultural integration sessions that took place as a result of a new business acquisition. We have had a lot of positive feedback from both the management of WesTrac and the newly acquired employees
Conflict Resolution and Mediation
Let’s accept that there is an unhelpful conflict within your organisation. Can we also agree that each party believes they are more or less correct in their opinion? Indeed, there might be hostility as the situation deteriorates. Can we also agree that conflict occurs in every organisation and conflict is often necessary? Therefore, we need to mediate a path away from unhelpful conflict. We need to put resentment behind and start anew. The disputing parties need to be respectful. Let’s not expect birthday cards to be exchanged but your organisation can retain people who have different opinions and still be respectful of each other. Otherwise the conflict festers and workplace morale drops. Let’s remove the conflict.

Notes:
The facilitators style is amicable. The facilitator will help each party to state their case tactfully. Any common ground will be accentuated, and the facilitator’s demeanour is very calm. There will be a focus on what the future could look like and the session is positioned as a line in the sand opportunity. For sessions like this, it is critical to ask the right questions. Smart questions get changes in mindset. Step 4 is the hardest part. The facilitator will put forward an agreement that is fair and impartial. The facilitator will also be on hand for any extra assistance. Step 1 is the most important step as it’s the facilitators initial rapport skills & professionalism that will drive the project to a successful outcome.Target Audience:
