WORKPLACE MEDIATION
Organisational Psychology research has linked a number of workplace factors that contribute to psychological health, well being and productivity that benefits both the organisation and its people. Supportive leadership, learning and development opportunities, feedback and recognition, role clarity and flexible work options have shown to be evident in good management practice.
Despite best intentions, all organisations are and will be facing ongoing and unprecedented change, restructures, mergers, re-alignment and response to the digital revolution, the political and global environment, then came COVID-19 and now we have hybrid workplaces, working from home and all things related.
The changing environment can provide many opportunities and optimism for new paradigms for the workplace that will hopefully and eventually benefit customers/clients and workers at all levels, the design of new jobs and the growth and development of organisations. However, alongside ongoing change, there can be fatigue, feelings of insecurity, inadequacy, resentment, as well as an increase in mental health issues for some workers. Workplace conflict can often emerge and productivity is negatively affected.
