Shiv Martin Consulting is a leading dispute resolution practice working with regulatory, business and community organisations across Australia and New Zealand. We are entrusted by our corporate partners and government clients to handle your most sensitive conversations.
We provide mediation and conciliation services, complaints management support, facilitation, coaching and conflict resolution training. All of which is grounded in our expertise and accreditations in law, mediation, psychology and public service.
Our engagements range from designing early resolution pathways for dispute resolution teams, through to sector-specific conciliation training and multi-day programs, to team facilitation, workplace mediation and confidential leadership coaching.
Every engagement starts with a conversation about your team's needs and expert advice on the right process. Not every matter needs the same approach, and our multidisciplinary team can support you across the full range of people matters in your workplace.
