We see conflict differently.

Conflict is changing. So should we.

Today's clients arrive more overwhelmed, more defensive, and more certain they're right. In order to be effective, we need to meet them where they are.

I help professionals who work with conflict learn a different way of understanding conflict so they can work with greater confidence, curiosity, and impact.

  • "I was feeling stuck... I was not very curious anymore! Jacinta's approach was to ask me a lot of questions I was not asking myself. She helped me see where my own defensiveness was showing up in the mediation room. Best of all, she invited me to discover ways forward."

  • "I must say they are truly game changers. I genuinely believe this is the right direction for things to move towards in the future in Malaysia. Looking at it from a client’s perspective, I would be very happy to go through such courses, as I prefer having the time and space to understand the issues at my own pace. The structure, layout, and overall presentation of the courses clearly reflect the professionalism, thoughtfulness, and hard work of the separation professionals involved, which would definitely give clients greater confidence and assurance."

    — Jeanette Tan Partner, Messrs K.H.Tan & Associates | Malaysia

  • “I just want to say the Curious Mediator course was phenomenal. It really made my work easier. It really made me a better listener, and it made me more effective in helping my clients be more empowered.”

Have a question or are you interested in training, speaking, consulting, or Curious Mediator? We'd love to hear from you!

For conference key notes, workshops or full training programs, my goal is to create an experience that will have a lasting impact. I'm not really into the “talking head” role, so while I can do a panel discussion, I find it hard not to be interactive!

I aim to create a comfortable space for participants to explore who they are and how “they “show up” in their work and in their relationships. I love creating a bespoke experience, and here are some of the most engaging topics:

  • The Power of Curiosity

  • The Problem With Problem Solving

  • Understanding Conflict Through a Learning Lens

  • Opening up Possibilities - Getting the Job Done

  • There is an "I" in Team

  • Managing Difficult People Behaviors

  • Deepening Without Drowning

My focus is on the many obstacles that get in the way of productive communication. Let's work together to change the usual approach, to something exciting that works! Reach out today!
