CanMediate International

Healthy workplaces + engaged employees = greater productivity and profitability! There is a competitive edge as a leader in knowing how to read the subtle cues that competitors may miss. If we miss what’s really at the root of a problem we can waste time, energy and resources putting band-aids over abscesses! Our training, coaching consulting, speaking and mediation services are customized for each client. We partner with you to help identify root causes of issues - so we design a process that has a reasonable potential to succeed! By opening a window into the hidden dynamics in your organization, we help you to manage complex relationship challenges, get to the heart of conflict and ‘dysfunction’ and create sustainable solutions. We are skilled at engaging management, employees and unions in working together to resolve complex issues. We have supported a wide range of organizations; commercial businesses, government departments, communities and volunteer groups, from locally to globally, helping people to understand the dynamics of their situation and leveraging their conflicts to produce a healthier, more productive and often happier environment. We are committed to reducing your dependence on us by sharing our knowledge and skills to build capacity in your team. We do this through formal and informal training, coaching and experiential learning in conflict management processes and organizational renewal initiatives. When necessary we will work with the team to resolve conflict and repair the harm that has occurred. Throughout our goal is to support people in developing practical and innovative solutions to the complex problems that are keeping them awake at night. "Our workplace had spiraled out of control. Ruth works tirelessly to get results – she gained everyone’s trust and gave us the tools to be successful. People now love to come to work. In 35 years here, I’ve never seen anybody do what Ruth has empowered people to do.” A Miller, BCWS
