I am a psychologist with experience in a range of challenging environments, as an employee and as a manager. Besides coaching and training, I have led on consultations, developed policies, and conducted research about motivation and work-related stress and burnout. I have also worked, and continue to do so, with different UK and US universities.
I have mentored tens of psychology dissertations, from undergraduate to doctorate level, both qualitative and quantitative. I have also published papers in peer-reviewed journals, using a range of data analyses. I believe that all students have the capacity to become good researchers, once they overcome the anxiety about research methods and/or data analysis. This is where I think I can offer a lot of value.

It confirmed my method of conflict resolution is a good method in the workplace. The course was very much a confirmation. Thank you.

The audio is abrupt and seems like there is missing content. The noise quality is low and could use a better microphone or environment. The speaker is understandable and enunciates well but seems like she could use a glass of water.

Refreshing. Good at a time when the workforce is changing. I have noticed conflict arising because of generation differences and inappropriate communication. This course corrects that.

The first part was a little dry. The part on hot buttons was interesting and the last part discussing actual methods to use was helpful.
By Mandy Agius on 3/14/2017
I found this course to be very interesting because most of the tactics mentioned, to solve conflicts at work, are so down to earth. The instructor was even reachable via email and Skype, and replied to any queries I had instantly and in a way I could easily understand.
