Mediation Style

Half day mediation: Gayle’s style is adapted to the time-frame. The participants are welcome to a pre-mediation call for up to thirty minutes each.

Full day mediation: Gayle’s style involves a pre-mediation with each participant lasting up to an hour each, preferably a few days prior to the mediation date but after exchange of any position statement / mediation statement. This is to allow the participants to be heard and to focus on their interests and needs prior to the mediation. She provides optional ‘homework’ for the participants to best prepare them for the day. Gayle will combine her skills as a coach, mentor and mediator to facilitate a conversation and try to unlock the dispute towards resolution.
