"Whenever there is conflict during contract negotiations for instance, any number of conflict
management processes and procedures may be followed; there is nothing better however
than an open mind and a firm dose of creativity for finding joint resolutions".
Alex Strieker, The Peace Practice mediator

Conflicts can be resolved in any number of ways. One budget and time efficient
method is mediation*. This method involves joint resolution, assisted by a neutral
mediator. Not the legalistic positions are central to the resolution process, but the 
actual interests of the people involved, whereby the relationship is also not unduly
damaged any further.

Although it may seem at times unattainable, for almost all disputes a solution,
acceptable to all parties involved, can be found. Seventy percent of the cases
presented, can be resolved by means of mediation. In contrast to litigation, is 
mediation a relatively short process of anything from 3-4 hours to ten at most.

Mediation is particularly suited to those who, despite their differences, have an
interest to continue the relationship in the future for whatever reason, or for those
foisted upon each other by circumstances.

To make conflict resolution attainable for more people, mediation is now made online available by The Peace Practice. Just forward us the details for an assessment; after acceptance we schedule an appointment to do our best to come to a solution to mutual satisfaction in one or more live online sessions in the secure Mediation Room, or by any other appropriate means. 

* otherwise known as Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) or Online Dispute Resolution (ODR)

"Regretfully it is symptomatic in conflicts that parties stop communicating, which in turn gives rise to
all kinds of misconceptions and preconceived assumptions: for example that the adversary is unwilling to
negotiate, while in reality this may not be the case at all."
