UK Mediation

This was an excellent course, among the very best that I have ever attended. (and I have attended lots - and taught a few too!!) The venue was extremely good, and the tutoring of the highest standard. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in mediation. I look forward to further engagement with UK Mediation. Thanks for a great week.

My training with UK Mediation was fantastic, they really made things clear and simple. The tutor was great at explaining how the processes worked and I can't wait to start my carer as a mediator.

As Martin Luther King said, The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. I think this quote was intended for those who find themselves in challenge and controversy unintentionally. Mike has chosen a career where he intentionally steps into these difficult situations and in so doing, makes the world a better place for us all. Mike has dedicated his life to guiding people from all walks of life, from a place of conflict (with the mental and emotional pain that carries), to a place of clarity, peace and healing. Mike is a kind, compassionate and empathetic human being. His devotion to serving others from a place of integrity, humility and truth has guaranteed his success as UKs number one Mediator and Mediation Service provider. I had the honour and privilege of training as a Mediator with Mike directly in Gibraltar in 2014, organised by our Citizens Advice Bureau. Busy is an understatement, yet Mike always finds the time to touch base with me any time I reach out to him since then and to date. In his earlier years, Mike volunteered in Homeless Shelters; then volunteered as a Community Mediator assisting conflicts in neighbourhoods; spent 4 years working closely with people with life threatening conditions giving them a voice through alternate means when they were losing their ability to speak; Mike also worked as MD of a computer company specialising in adaptations for blind and partially sighted people. From 1989-1999 Mike devoted his time as a Psychotherapist assessing those suffering psychological injury and in 1999 founded UK Mediation. He is an empowerer, facilitator, educator, game changer; working from a place of authenticity and pure intention. In a world where increasingly profit is valued over people, Mike puts people first. Mikes unique selling point is that he marries his psychotherapy practice with Mediation, to provide a more holistic approach to dispute resolution for individuals and organisations. He connects with and understands the mental and emotional pain in the human who is in conflict. Mike has a natural gift which is to see beyond or behind the masks people wear, to unlock their real fears and unmet human needs and by so doing, disarming opponents to a place of compassion, sometimes forgiveness and willingness to make peace. Bernie Banks said, the measure of a man is in the lives hes touched. From Mikes decades of service to humanity, Id say hes touched thousands not only the lives of those who he has guided towards peaceful resolution, but the lives of all those who were affected by that person being in mental and emotional pain, such as relatives and co-workers in what I call, the ripple effect. Mikes work and legacy cannot be measured, but the man certainly can.
