Simply finding a solution is not complete, if doing so occurs outside of the influence of your personal convictions and faith, or ignores the personal relationship connected to the challenge. I provide consulting services which help businesses and organizations evaluate their existing culture of addressing changes and disagreements and resolve the presenting issues. I also help them develop long term plans to change their conflict resolution culture to one that allows individuals to transform damaged relationships into ones which use collaborative work to resolve their disputes and proactively improve their effectiveness.
