Fields of activity

My consulting process starts by investigating the goals and pupose of the organization, the various processes and structure. The need for change often becomes manifest through conflicts. If the people chose for mediation their resources for fundamental innovations become activated.

Conflict management and mediation in organizations

For mediation within teams and between groups and in the organization as a whole an approach is required that complies with the unique situation in the team and the organization.

Trainings for conflict management

Tailor-made trainings for managers, project-leaders or representatives of work-councils can be given for 1 oder more days, depending on the concrete situation.

Trainings to qualify mediators and/or conflict-coaches

We can provide complete trainings according to the legal requirements for mediators (EU, Austria, Germany, Switzerland) – in most cases in cooperation with universities.

Development of conflict management systems in organizations

In order to meet severe challenges as an organization through a participative process we develop a system for dealing with tensions to prevent any further escalation. Such systems include an early warning system and specific functions and procedures for the prevention of escalation and for constructive management of conflicts.

Consultation and coaching for peace processes

In cooperation with experts of the regional cultures in the areas of crisis or war strategies for stopping violence and for peace building can be designed and implemented.

Films for trainings in conflict management and mediation

More then 50 years of experience in conflict research, teaching and mediation are available as films in which practical interventions are demonstrated in real life cases and in simulated conflicts.

»Very often social conflicts stem from
failed attempts to develop. If people
dare to confront with the conflicts
and to work on them in a constructive
way amazing steps of development
become possible. «
