Crisis negotiation
When dialogue has broken down, every hour counts.
A negotiation crisis, a shareholder conflict, a strike, an abrupt contract termination, a site shutdown, cannot be handled with the tools of an ordinary negotiation. Emotion is high, positions have hardened, and the symbolic stakes often matter as much as the financial ones. Our role: recreate the conditions for an agreement where everything looked locked.
When we step in
How we work
We map each party's position, identify the real interests behind the stated demands, and assess the objective balance of power. No promises before we have understood.
We define the approach: direct intervention, facilitated mediation, or advice to the leadership. Every crisis has its own geography. We pick the right entry angle so as not to make things worse.
We create a protected negotiation space, away from media or judicial pressure. We run the exchanges with a neutrality both sides can feel, without taking sides, while defending your interest.
We help frame proposals the other camp can accept without sacrificing the essentials of your position. The agreement is documented, robust and durable, not a fragile ceasefire.
