What are Coaching, Mediation and Consensus Building? 

Coaching allows a trained professional to assist a person or group of people to identify their goals and acquire the skills they need to address issues in their life or organization like conflict. The coach taps into the inner wisdom of the person being coached, helps the person being coached develop a strategy and holds them accountable for their commitments to act. Coaching can help a person handle conflict more effectively in their life.

Mediation involves a third party that is neutral assisting persons in conflict communicate better, address issues causing the conflict and work towards mutually agreeable solutions.

Consensus Building deals with communicating better in group or team processes in organizations or businesses. It involves dealing with conflicts in groups and improving decision-making.
