WORKING WITH DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
10th August 2026
Working with a person who uses, or has used, violence requires more than simply “managing behaviour” in the room. It requires a careful understanding of safety, accountability, engagement, children’s best interests, and the boundaries of our role as impartial practitioners.
It also requires us to think carefully about connection.
How do we engage with a person who has used violence in a way that is appropriate, boundaried and purposeful?
How do we keep the focus on the best interests of the children?
How do we avoid collusion, while still creating enough engagement for the process to be meaningful and safe?
WORKPLACE MEDIATION

WORKING WITH HIGH CONFLICT PEOPLE & SITUATIONS
13th November 2026
We created this training for legal professionals/dispute resolvers, but with HCP and situations increasingly appearing in schools, healthcare facilities, financial institutions, and other businesses, this training has proved valuable to human resources teams, managers and trainers across a range of industries.
You’ll walk away with a greater understanding of the dynamics of HCP, what drives these people’s behaviours, and have new skills and clarity you can use to manage HCP confidently, especially under pressure.
