SOLUTION-FOCUSSED, UNDERSTANDING, NON-JUDGEMENTAL
- Understanding the "Why": Help participants to understand the root of their conflict. By addressing core issues, to better prepare and potentially prevent future disputes.
- Emotion & Principle: We appreciate the role that emotion plays. We assist parties to better appreciate each other's perspective and motivations, to better assist them to find more effective paths to move forward.
