Sheridan Worldwide Sponsors the UK Mediation Conference 2024

Sheridan Worldwide Sponsors the UK Mediation Conference 2024

Sheridan Worldwide is proud to sponsor the UK Mediation Conference on 25th November 2024. This event brings together leading voices in workplace mediation and conflict resolution for a day of learning, collaboration, and insight.

The conference boasts a stellar line-up of speakers, including Caroline Sheridan and David Whincup, who will deliver a session titled “Getting Engaged at Work.” Their talk explores how to navigate workplace conflict when an employer embraces mediation principles, but employees remain hesitant due to traditional, adversarial dispute resolution approaches. The session will tackle key questions:

  • How can you persuade employees to engage in the mediation process?
  • What leverage or assurances can you offer?
  • Can you require mediation as a first step in resolving disputes?

Other featured speakers represent organisations such as Acas, The TCM Group, Consensio, and IPOS Mediation, sharing strategies for fostering a culture of proactive conflict management.

This conference provides an excellent opportunity to connect with HR, Employee Relations (ER), and leadership professionals about framing mediation as a tool for happier employees and healthier workplaces. Beyond mediation itself, discussions will explore early resolution strategies to address conflicts before they escalate.
