Hi, I’m Katherine Flores, the best business mediator for you. My whole life I’ve loved bringing people together with enhanced understanding and better communication. I also run a Brooklyn taco business with a partner. This experience coupled with my mediation training help me facilitate your workplace conflicts with exceptional efficiency.
My process at Flo Mediation works with your specific goals in mind. At the onset you set a framework for the time limit and tangible results you want to work toward. This ensures that our work remains thoughtful, efficient, and purposeful.
Over my 30+ years in the workforce, I’ve developed an approach to conflict as an adventure. By nature, I’m also able to maintain a calm and impartial demeanor even in elevated and tense situations. My focus stays on facilitating your understanding and communication.
Experience makes me your best mediator
I’m both sensitive and fearless in the face of conflict. I know disagreements are inevitable among individuals who care about their work. Drawing from my professional backgrounds in business and mediation, I’m equipped to guide you through these conflicts and foster understanding. As a result, I’m confident that I’m the best mediator for you.
Mediation isn’t Therapy – The best mediator for you is efficient
Unlike therapy, mediation offers a short-term solution. The time commitment is flexible, often ranging from just a few sessions to fewer than a dozen. The focus of mediation is to identify and address specific issues through agreed-upon goals.
On the other hand, therapists are trained to help you address internal struggles, not conflict with others. As a result, duo and group therapy may often feel ineffective or at best, inefficient. Ongoing sessions can also get expensive without a designated goal to provide an end point.
Mediators provide guidance and equip participants with conflict management tools and skills. These skills include active listening, effective communication, problem-solving, and prioritization.
Successful mediation may also require more active involvement from you in nurturing these relationships. However, the rewards are worth it, as your partnership or team will develop more cooperation, stronger bonds, and better communication.
Conclusion
In conclusion, as the best mediator for you, I bring a wide breadth of experience, relevant training, and an efficient process to help your business. This makes me your ideal choice for resolving business disputes and fostering ongoing harmony. Book a session and learn more about how mediation works on our Flo Mediation home page.
