Sheida Ghadakchian, Economic Advisor at Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government – Practical Mediation Skills
"I really enjoyed this course. Might be the best course I’ve ever been on. Completely different to what I expected but so amazing. The trainer was very inspirational! I liked all of it, but absolutely loved the concept of principal. I hope to use the skills in my daily interactions with people, not just at work but also in my personal life. Thank you!"
Marie Eaton, HR Director at Action Against Hunger – Practical Mediation Skills
"A practical and highly engaging course designed to offer conflict resolution at an early stage. I will definitely reflect on my learning from the role play – perhaps develop tools to prompt the flow of the discussion that I can use confidently during real-life mediation scenarios. Would recommend!"
Samantha West, Policy Adviser at Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government – Core Mediation Skills
"I thoroughly enjoyed this course and I think all managers should attend this training, not just individuals under the HR directors. Learning how to respond to different questions which ask your opinion was good. As the Diversity and Inclusion and Bullying and Harassment lead, this will be useful if colleagues come to me with different scenarios."
Roshni Mistry, Grievance Assessor at Metropolitan Police Service – Practical Mediation Skills
"Not just another course – the skills learnt have planted the seed and will continue to grow and evolve. I will use the skills as part of my role to promote mediation. Hopefully I will get a chance to shadow a mediator and put this into practice."
Jonathon Williams, Leadership Facilitator at Dorset Healthcare University NHS Foundation Trust – National Certificate in Workplace Mediation
"TCM are without question a professional outfit, every member of staff was knowledgeable, courteous and engaging. The mediation benchmark has been set. I particularly like having the time to absorb what you have learned, I think breaking the week up is a nice way to assimilate the information as it can get quite heavy. Excellent location and facilitators, friendly staff and good environment, and pacing and delivery of content was pertinent and conducive to learning. Would definitely recommend!"
Helen Reed, HRBP at Satellite Applications Catapult – Practical Mediation Skills
"The course was insightful, thorough and very well presented – really supported my development. I am now really keen to become an accredited mediator. Really insightful training. The trainer was great and he adopted a style of delivery that was really engaging and made me want to get involved. I hope to use what I have learnt by developing a conflict resolution policy, by mediating internally and by training a cohort of mediators."
Helen Gunner, Hampshire County Council – Practical Mediation Skills
"Firstly, can I just say how much I enjoyed the two days with you and your colleagues. Right from the very start of day one when both Lisajay and Emily greeted and welcomed me, your trainer Thomas who was so lively and helpful in his delivery and in answering my very many questions…. A great two days – I have come back buzzing with ideas and enthusiasm to get things moving. Having thoroughly enjoyed the PMS course – I have taken lots of refreshed skills, knowledge and ideas into our Hampshire project."
Emma Sanders, Workplace Investigator – Practical Investigation Skills
"An excellent, informative and interactive course. Full of practical skills, thought-provoking and highly useful, knowledgeable content used. The listening exercise was excellent – I loved it! I will use what I have learnt to challenge my previous learning and to adapt new styles."
Sarah Phillips, Creative Producer at Historic Royal Palaces – Conflict Resolution Skills
"I really appreciated the dynamic delivery which cam across as both meaningful and thorough, yet still responsive to the needs of the delegates in the room. Particularly liked the opportunity to hear other viewpoints and perspectives across organisations. I also liked exploring different styles of conflict management and having the time to identify my skills and how I can use them. Very well prepared and the skills we learnt are useful for day to day life!"
Ihor Kruk, Executive Staff Officer at Alberta Teachers Association – Practical Investigation Skills
"This is the third TCM event I have attended – all were brilliant. Excellent logistics, excellent content and excellent presenter."
