BACKGROUND TO ISMS2021: As India faces an unprecedented crisis with the second wave of Covid, the entire eco-system of business, government, healthcare, and the public at large, is being tested and throwing up challenges we never imagined we'd have to face.
Businesses across the world are dealing with everything from supply-chain breakdowns, to stressed-out human resources, contractual breakdowns, and subdued consumer sentiment. Conflict within xqand between businesses is a reality that we're all facing today, and Mediation is one of the most effective ways of dealing with this new reality.
Whether it is to address internal stakeholder conflict or to resolve disputes with partners and customers, Mediation is the only process that can not only help discover sustainable solutions, but can also strengthen business relationships that are fractured in these tough times.
