Mediation is increasingly being used to resolve disputes in many areas of life. Organisations are now recognising that unresolved disputes and inappropriately managed workplace conflict impacts upon workplace effectiveness and places an on-going drain on organisational resources. Not uncommonly, cases referred to third parties for resolution do not produce satisfactory outcomes for the parties involved. There is a growing awareness that Mediation, as an alternative mechanism for dispute resolution, has a key role to play in conflict resolution within organisations.
