While most of our cases and courses are still being delivered online, we are now able to resume face-to-face services where certain requirements are met.

Conflict is normal, inevitable, and sometimes hard to deal with. We know how to resolve it with mediation.

Disputes happen. Mostly, we can sort things out by talking, listening, compromising and collaborating. When we get stuck in our disputes, however, conflict can become stressful, costly, and distracting.

This is where UK Mediation comes in as the leading provider of mediation training. We can either train you to be a mediator as an individual or train a group within your organisation. We also provide external mediation services, resolving conflict quickly and without the need for formal action.

Our Founder and CEO, Dr. Mike Talbot, is a renowned mediator, trainer, and psychotherapist. Along with a great team at UK Mediation, Mike has developed a market-leading range of training courses and conflict resolution services.

We have extensive experience with different mediation scenarios, including neighbourhood, tenancy, family relationship, and workplace mediation. Let us show you how to take away the stress, expense, and distraction of having to deal with unresolved conflict.

“Advancing mediation practice by going deeper.”

When I started UK Mediation back in 1999, the last thing I wanted to do was to replicate what everyone else was doing. Having been a psychotherapist for quite a while, I thought, ‘Well, why not take what I already know about the underlying causes of conflict, and start resolving it from the inside out?’ So now I’ve got arguably the biggest and most successful mediation company around, and the idea seems to have worked!

The thing is that we struggle to negotiate our way through conflict because we’re so angry, afraid, or hurt that we find it hard not to let emotion get in the way of reason. Communication breaks down, and we get so wrapped up that we can scarcely remember how the argument even got started. By understanding these conflict processes far better, we can start to resolve all sorts of disputes much more effectively.

This is why we created our relational model of mediation, re:talk, which has arisen from 21 years of UK Mediation’s pioneering work, as well as lessons learned from conducting thousands of mediation cases. It aims to restore dialogue, repair relationships, and rebuild teams, and can also be adapted for online mediation with our re:connect model.

NEXT WEBINAR:
Resolving Return to Work Conflict

Friday 21st August, 12 noon GMT

Our free monthly webinars are the easiest way to see what we have to offer. Each month, we take a different subject from the world of mediation and present a 45 minute talk, followed by your chance to ask questions.

As organisations get back to work and start to embrace the “new normal”, there is inevitably going to be a significant level of workplace conflict.

Social distancing, staggered working hours, and changes in work practices will eventually be embraced and normalised. For the time being, however, resulting disputes and fall-outs need to be managed productively and positively through the use of workplace mediation.

Join us for this live 45-minute webinar, presented by UK Mediation’s Dr Mike Talbot, as we explore how organisations can implement mediation into their preparations for returning to work.
