Experience
Throughout Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, Mr. Liefhebber has trained professionals in the advanced use of mediation, negotiation and persuasion techniques.

By enabling the team to communicate in effective and resolute ways, and to x problems and find solutions before reaching the point of mediation, teams take proactive steps to arrive at pragmatic solutions for their issues within the workshop timeframe.
