Why disputes need early outcomes: "The bottom line is that; from where-ever they arise; disputes cost money, undermine trust, generate stress and crush morale" That's the considered view of our Senior Mediator Ian Jenkins (pictured below). Ian is acutely aware that in many disputes the issues become embroiled in a swirling acrimonious fog. Ian's firm but fair method of mediation enables each Party to review exactly where they are now. And with a gentle but calculating reality check, Ian's perceptive mind quickly get's the parties focussed on the future; because only the past cannot be changed. His quiet impartial momentum provides the opportunity for disputing parties to come up with the workable solutions each can live with.
