Mediator. Lawyer.
Problem-solver.
Richard works with individuals, teams, families and organisations around the world to help them collaborate, improve how they communicate, and facilitate disagreement.
He has conducted over 200 conflict resolution processes, helping over 500 people navigate conflict so that they feel clear, heard and better understood.
Resolve conflict early.
Unmanaged conflict affects more than just morale; it creates a bottleneck for productivity and a significant risk to your organisation.
For Managers, HR Professionals and Leaders: unresolved conflict is a psychosocial hazard that you have a duty to manage. Mediation and coaching can provide lasting and sustainable alternatives to formal grievances, which for many interpersonal disputes are too rigid and adversarial, leaving employees feeling unfairly treated and unsatisfied.
For Co-founders: with 65% of high-potential startups failing due to co-founder conflict, leadership alignment is not just a nice to have. I help you navigate different communication styles and clashing visions to establish the boundaries needed to lead as a unified front.
For Family Businesses: it’s common in family businesses for conflict to arise because family and business roles clash. I help you establish the professional boundaries needed to communicate clearly and effectively, ensuring the long-term sustainability of the business.
