The Art of the Possible
Mediation is a voluntary, confidential process where a neutral third person helps those in conflict to communicate, understand each other's perspectives, and work together towards resolution.
​
Formal proceedings often offer a limited set of outcomes. Mediation gives you the flexibility to explore options and agree anything you both consider workable.
It's about building bridges, not burning them.

Successful mediation requires a combination of patience, respect and a strong problem solving orientation.
During my 3 years of working with Louise I saw her demonstrate all those characteristics. She knows how to create a solution oriented environment and a process that encourages participants to work constructively to self-determine mutually acceptable outcomes. She has high levels of emotional intelligence and empathy which gives her the skill to listen, understand the individuals involved and their motivations and reframe those to help find practical workable outcomes.
​
During our time working together Louise was responsible for resolving numerous important and difficult people issues. She always handled them with sensitivity, good judgment and patience.

Non-executive director and trustee,
former Magic Circle law firm partner
Louise's legal, professional development and HR experience have all contributed to her holistic, empathetic approach to helping people identify for themselves not only their problem but also the pathway to resolving it. Having worked for many years in a high performing professional services environment with senior lawyers, she became adept at calmly listening and then tactfully asking the incisive questions which enabled them to see a different point of view.
​
She is low ego despite a fierce intellect and well-developed emotional intelligence, both of which she deploys effectively but subtly to get to the heart of an issue. Having flexed her own career direction several times now, she is exceptionally open-minded and an adaptable, agile thinker. She is also discreet and completely trustworthy, with strong ethical values built over the various phases of her career and a genuine interest in supporting people to find a resolution to their problems.
