independent, \u201cimpartial\u201d third parties (mediators) support the parties in their conflict-resolution process. <\/span><span class=\"expandableItem\">The parties to the conflict, also known as mediation participants, seek to reach a mutual agreement that reflects their needs and interests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"expandableItem\">As a mediator, I work in accordance with the German Mediation Act, which guarantees independence and confidentiality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"expandableItem\">Conflict situations that are often addressed through mediation include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"expandableItem\">Conflicts between companies<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"expandableItem\">Conflicts between individuals, both private and professional<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"expandableItem\">Conflicts within groups and teams<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"expandableItem\">Neighbourhood disputes<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span

situations in which no conflict has (yet) arisen, but it can be helpful to bring the parties\u2019 different positions together and find a shared perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Situations suitable for such a
