Workplace mediation

Dismissal, Sick Leave, Boardroom Conflicts, Team Conflicts, Terms of Employment, Reorganizations

Those involved sometimes end up in legal proceedings. This costs both employer and employee a lot of time, energy, and money. Moreover, a judge’s decision does not always lead to a solution that all parties can agree with. Even in the case of an (impending) employment conflict, mediation is an excellent tool to use.

If it is clear to both the employee and the employer that the employment contract will be terminated, you can still choose mediation. During mediation, agreements can be made about the conditions under which the employment relationship will end. Our mediator guides both parties to separate in a good way. There is room in the conversations to express appreciation for each other, even if there are no possibilities for the future. This helps with acceptance and saying goodbye.

In short; business disputes drain energy, time, and therefore money. Disagreements can arise over a contract or payment, or a problem may occur within your partnership, general partnership, private limited company, or foundation. In economic transactions, we deal with different viewpoints and conflicting interests on a daily basis. But under certain circumstances, this can suddenly become unpleasant or even escalate. Sometimes going to court seems inevitable, unless you sit down together with the help of a mediator.

Examples:

1. Two colleagues both believe they are the right person to become the new department head. Ambitions and competencies play a crucial role in this. Power conflicts can be resolved through structural interventions or procedural agreements.
2. In social-emotional conflicts, behavior and attitude within personal relationships are central. This includes issues such as self-image and identity. For example, colleagues may have perceptions of each other that hinder a good working relationship. In such a situation, it is important that, through open communication about feelings, irritations, and frustrations, more understanding for each other is achieved.
3. One colleague accidentally discovers that a customer from his region had placed an order with his colleague. Both colleagues then accused each other of poaching each other's clients. In front of the sales department manager, the colleagues pointed the finger at each other.
