Emily is a mediator and restorative practice facilitator with a background in business and entrepreneurship – she has an MBA from the London Business School and is a Freeman with the Company of Entrepreneurs in the City of London.

Working in corporates for more than 15 years, Emily set up a successful social media training consultancy with clients from all over the world. She witnessed first-hand how internal conflict can negatively affect people’s lives and for many businesses, results in key staff leaving as well as underperformance. So a few years ago, Emily sold the business and trained as a restorative practice facilitator and mediator.

She believes that even though conflict is a part of our working life (as it is part of the human condition), it can be transformed into an opportunity for growth, healing and understanding through embedding the practice of radical respect into our businesses and the way we work.
