Mediation Canberra

Most serious workplace disputes start small.

A bit of tension between two colleagues. A manager and a staff member who stop talking. A team where collaboration quietly breaks down. None of it looks like a crisis at first.

Left alone, these don't fix themselves. They grow into grievances, bullying complaints, stress claims and resignations. By then productivity has dropped and the workplace feels tense.

I joined Greg Harford on the Canberra Business Podcast to talk about stepping in early. We covered what workplace mediation actually involves, why acting early beats waiting for a formal grievance or Fair Work, and how many of these problems are really a leadership gap.

The signal to act is usually simple. There's a hard conversation you've been putting off.

If that sounds familiar, the first conversation with me is always free.

Thanks to the Canberra Business Chamber for having me on.

Before you can apply to court for parenting orders in Australia, you generally need a Section 60I certificate from an accredited Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner.

Most people first hear about it from a lawyer, and it lands as another bit of paperwork in an already stressful process. It is actually doing something useful: confirming that genuine effort was made to resolve things outside court, or explaining why that wasn't possible.

Worth a few minutes if you or someone close to you is navigating separation.

A Section 60I certificate shows you've attempted family dispute resolution before going to court. Learn what it is, when you need it, and how to get one in Canberra.
