Protect morale and enhance the bottom line by reducing workplace incivility. Kira Nurieli spoke with my network over Zoom on August 27th, 2024 and it was so value-added that we will likely invite her to present more in a future conversation. The government executives in attendance, having heard her description of her path to becoming a certified mediator, Ombuds, conflict coach & organizational psychologist, not only recognized the scenarios of workplace incivility and conflict management skills deficits she was describing but appreciated the empathy and savvy with which she responded to questions. We were all convinced that her group can add huge value, especially in situations where top leaders are willing to hear what she's telling them about misaligned structures and policies that actually may be setting up conflict unnecessarily.

Highly Skilled Mediators and Restorative Sharing Circle Facilitators. My company, Milestales, has partnered with Harmony Strategies for over five years. We have worked together on a range of products including restorative circle programs for youth, restorative circle programs for corporations, mediation during tense mergers and acquisitions, and mediation for diversity-related conflicts at larger organizations. I continue to be impressed by the depth of knowledge and professionalism of the team. But what has been most important is the calm and open temperament of the team members. This temperament is necessary during exceedingly intense situations where emotions are boiling over and individuals are on the brink of meltdowns. I highly recommend this team.

I worked with Harmony Strategies Group to learn Restorative Justice techniques and how the practice can be used to create a proactive, positive culture and climate. I appreciate the humanity-based approach to the trainings. Throughout the workshop, the presenter ensured that we felt comfortable in the setting, and that it was a safe space to share. We were not presented with "absolutes" in terms of possible implementation. Instead, we were provided a set of skills that we can use with our educational communities, regardless of the district, that will help us to build a safe, supportive school community where respect, dignity and communication are at the forefront.
