Ben Adkins is an experienced mediator and conflict resolution specialist. He resides in North Texas yet mediates all over the world using Zoom technology in addition to in-person sessions. Ben’s background includes mediating thousands of workplace conflicts between individuals and between groups at all levels, as well as significant experience mediating civil and family conflicts and disputes. Ben is a senior trainer with Mediation Dynamics and a certified master trainer, conflict coach, and consultant with Mediation Training Institute International. He teaches others when and how to resolve conflicts with others, negotiation tactics that work, and basic and advanced mediation skills. Ben knows conflicts are best resolved before they escalate into extended costly lawsuits or destroyed relationships. His approach is to help disputants reach agreements that preserve and enhance ongoing future interactions in the workplace, in the home or in business.
Workplace Conflict Management
Ben facilitates collaborative problem solving with Boards of directors, management, team members and peers, inter- and intra-departments, labor and management, EEOC complaints and conflicts between professional colleagues. In addition to mediating workplace issues and employee disputes, Ben consults with organizations to help them strategically manage and eliminate the destructive effects of unmanaged conflict. This leads to highly productive work environments free of costly grievances and complaints, low morale, or workplace lawsuits.
