Clive Lewis, New Mediation Book Gets 5 Star Review

16th April 2009:

AAT

Globis founder and managing director, Clive Lewis’ new book on workplace mediation and conflict management in the workplace has featured in this months edition of Accounting Technician.

The review said “Most of us are not keen on the thought of coming into work to confront people; most of us feel that locking horns with colleagues is not mereley unnecessary, but a wholesale distraction from the manifold task we face each day. For those of you keen to avoid the rampant painkiller consumption brought on by workplace stand-offs, Lewis’ book will come as a great relief. Its arrival is timely, too. This month, a new Employment Act comes into force, simplifying and clarifying previous UK employment law, particularly dispute resolution. With material on trust, leadership, and the effects of technology, Lewis deconstructs workplace conflict and offers solutions .  A big book of calm. Our is rating *****”

Clive Lewis said ” I’m delighted that finance professionals have taken such a keen interest in the book. I have been convinced for sometime that there is a direct correlation between conflict and costs. I am optimistic that this review might bring us one step closer to helping define the importance of the business case for conflict management principles in the workplace”.
