Emma trained me in workplace mediation recently and although I found it challenging, it was the most enjoyable course I've been on. As a highly experienced mediator, she brings all her skills, knowledge and experience to this program. Throughout the course, she was supportive, informative, gave constructive feedback and encouraged us to explore and deal with extremely difficult topics of conflict to prepare us for the workplace. The power of playing different parties and the mediator in roleplays was key ,and worked so well as you managed the learning by building on each step with practice and feedback in a safe environment. I highly recommend this course and working with Emma. Thank you for supporting me on the first stage of my workplace mediation journey.

I have witnessed Emma's performance as a mediator more than once and I can attest that she has impressed 'the room' with her ability to handle any situation calmly and patiently, even with the most obstructive participants. Her emotional intelligence and multitasking abilities are also incredible and permit to make tense meetings easier. Emma's style is adaptive and focused mainly on facilitation and continuous reality-checking. The confidence in the process during both mediations was infectious.
