Conflict is normal. Actually, also inevitable. But resolving conflict is not always easy. And deadlocked conflict eats up energy. As a mediator, I make things bright and clear and thus a little lighter. In general, I like to inspire people to have a positive outlook on life.

- negotiations to achieve final discharge between acquisition partners from various protracted legal proceedings;
- disagreement between members and the board of a large CoE;
- assistance in resolving hassles between the partners of an international recruitment marketing agency;
- trategic conflict between financiers/co-shareholders and founders/directors of a start-up;
- dispute between a municipality and an institution subsidized by the municipality;
- Mediation between composer and theater producer over copyright income.
Examples of employment mediations:
- work-related absenteeism with underlying conflict (multiple mediations on referral from company doctor, at different companies, healthcare organizations, or a family business);
- team trajectory, restoration of cooperation after long-running conflict in a team in a (semi-)governmental organization;
