Resolving disputes can be costly, timely and unfamiliar.
OpenMIC will cover how to resolve disputes and avoid escalation with limited budget and resources.
Nigel Sarbutts, founder of Structured Mediation, the UK’s specialist mediation service for the creative, PR, and communications industries, will present his structured six step process, explain why mediation is a smarter alternative to litigation, and how early intervention prevents the spiralling costs of workplace friction, from lost productivity to damaged client relationships.
Nigel brings decades of experience resolving disputes rooted in ideas, collaboration, trust, and workplace dynamics. Drawing on Structured Mediation’s clear, confidential, and highly practical approach, he will explain how mediation helps freelancers, agencies, clients, and colleagues untangle conflict quickly, often in less than a day, so everyone can get back to what they do best.
With a special focus on freelancers, Nigel will share real world insights and take live questions.
A must attend for anyone navigating the pressures of communications and creative work.
