One of the areas that we specialize in is workplace conflict facilitation and mediation.
Research suggests that HR managers can spend up to 80% of their time resolving conflicts and addressing relationship issues. That's a huge cost in terms of time, energy and money to any business. Think of what could happen if all those valuable resources could be better utilized!!
The good news is that most work place conflicts and disputes can be solved with mediation and facilitation, rather than resorting to the costly exercise of firing and rehiring new staff.
Consider the following:
- Cost of hiring new staff eg advertising/interviews
- Cost of training new staff
- Potential litigation
- Interrupted team dynamic and effectiveness
- Disgruntled staff can "bad mouth" the company and damage the reputation of your business.
- Fired staff can be hired by competitors resulting in them having access to your technology and information, which may give them a competitive edge over your business.
- Poor team morale
Mediation and facilitation save valuable money, effort and time. A happier workplace is a more productive workplace.
