Conflict occurs in any organization – it’s a fact of life. Managed effectively, conflict can actually help your organization grow. Left unresolved, conflict will become a wedge between an organization’s CEO and the Board, between staff members or departments. Many executive employment contracts mandate mediation in the event of CEO/Board conflict. R & M Principals McCarthy and Blansett have been professionally trained as mediators, and bring those skills to every aspect of our consulting assignments. We offer onsite mediation, generally resolving most conflicts in no more than 1-2 days.
