Order

The UK Government required bespoke mediation training for embassy staff in the Endo-Pacific region.
The aim was to equip staff with the necessary skills and knowledge to effectively mediate conflicts, resolve internal tensions and promote a collaborative working environment.

The challenge

The challenge was to develop a training course that took into account the cultural and legal differences of the Endo-Pacific region and at the same time met the high standards of the UK government with regard to mediation.
In addition to the mediation training, a 40-hour investigator training course took place in parallel.
The two groups were brought together in one module each to develop a deeper understanding of the processes.
The training was conducted on site in Bangkok and led by three international experts.

Result

The customized mediation training was successfully carried out and received positively by the embassy staff.
They gained in-depth knowledge of mediation processes and were able to moderate conflicts professionally and sensitively.
The training strengthened employees’ confidence in their abilities and helped to create a more cooperative and harmonious working environment.

Effects

The introduction of the mediation training had a significant impact on the working culture and conflict management in the UK Government embassies in the Endo-Pacific region.
Staff felt empowered and more confident to resolve conflicts and find collaborative solutions.
This strengthened the credibility of the embassies and promoted public confidence in the integrity and effectiveness of the institutions.
