As a manager, you can prevent workplace conflict by being receptive to employee feedback and being quick to resolve disputes once they emerge.

Having an open door policy can encourage staying on top of happenings amongst co-workers. This way you can treat issues from the onset.

Thank you for choosing better ways to resolve conflict.

MEDIATION IN ACTION: Role Play with Fola Alade – The Global Mediator

This new series was inspired by two important voices in my life.

My wife, Teju'​ Fola-Alade, reminded me not to limit my posts to trainings alone but to also show that I actively mediate.

You heard me right, I said the world because we are now GLOBAL.

Here’s the exciting part: participants for these role plays will be chosen from those who indicate interest as actors/parties.

If you would like to take part, simply send us a DM on our LinkedIn or Instagram page.

machines for precision, mediators for human emotions. Together, they can make conflict resolution faster and more accessible than ever.

Date: Friday, 6th December 2025
Time: 1:00 PM (WAT)

AI won’t replace mediators. But mediators who embrace AI will replace those who don’t.

[Fola De'Mediator @fotefamediation]

The question isn’t whether AI will change mediation, it already has. The real question is: how do mediators harness this technology without losing the heart of the process?

#MediatorsAndMachines #FotefaMediationAcademy #FutureOfMediation #GlobalMediation #AIandMediation

[Fola De'Mediator @fotefamediation]

AI can scan volumes of data in seconds, predict outcomes, and streamline procedures; but only humans can read emotions, build trust, and guide parties with wisdom and compassion.

The future of dispute resolution lies in this symbiotic partnership:

When we say Mediation is the future of dispute resolution, it’s not just talk, it’s proven reality. As we often say: Mediation is definitely dispute resolution on STEROIDS!

Throwback Thursday

Not too long ago, history was made.

Our very own Fola Alade Esq. had the honour of mediating his first ever Mediation case at the Court of Appeal, alongside the highly respected Mr. Valentino Buoro. And guess what? The matter was settled!

#Folaalade #ADR

[Fola De'Mediator @fotefamediation]

To put it in perspective:
This dispute had lingered for 13 years - 4 years at the High Court and 9 years at the Court of Appeal.

Yet, through the power of Mediation, it was resolved in less than 4 hours.

As part of the RSMDC, he looks forward to supporting its mission of providing accessible, efficient, and party-driven pathways to justice.

His focus remains on promoting peace, resolving disputes amicably, and empowering parties to find sustainable solutions.

[Fola De'Mediator @fotefamediation]

We are pleased to announce our Fola Alade Esq's empanelment as a Neutral (Mediator) with the Rivers State Multi-Door Courthouse (RSMDC), Port Harcourt, effective 11th August 2025.
