Mediation helps parties understand different perspectives and explore differences in a supported way, to resolve issues in mutual agreement.

All our mediation consultants hold qualifications in mediation and conflict resolution.

Absence Management

Absence and AWOL employees can affect your whole team and have a costly effect on your business. Think People provide hands-on consultancy, manager support and guidance, and bespoke policies and procedures.
