What we do

Mediation that lowers the cost of labor conflict.

Three principles

  • Analyze
  • Listen
  • Economize

Value promise. We deliver solutions that reduce labor litigation costs by 10% through mediation and consensus-building strategies.

Communicative action complements the legal defense strategy. Mediation before, during and after individual or collective labor litigation reduces cost, uncertainty and time to resolution, with a favorable effect on operating budgets.

We innovate in management culture and institutional administration: after an assessment of labor conflicts, even at the litigation stage, we design a conflict-resolution map with a projection of the financial impact of labor conflict.

We mediate labor conflicts to support operational and mission stability.

Why we do it

Insurance against the uncertainty of labor relations.

Three principles

  • Efficiency
  • Coordination
  • Decision

Labor conflicts, corporate or institutional, individual or collective, are a source of management uncertainty that usually rests on the legal strategy alone.

The conflict-resolution map, with its financial impact projection, integrates with the legal defense and is offered to HR teams, executives, shareholders and third parties affected by the operation: it gives the legal strategy room to breathe and points to an effective resolution.

We innovate in how organizations relate to their people, on the principle of building trust in agreements, even amid disagreement.

How we do it

An agreed route, from diagnosis to sustainability.

We start from first-hand knowledge of labor conflict by economic sector, by territory and regional dynamics, and of labor regulation in Colombia.

María Victoria Rubiano Ortiz

CEO. Social communicator and journalist with experience in international labor relations and in negotiation and consensus-building trends.

Three principles

  • Collaboration
  • Complementarity
  • Tripartism

Mediation is designed with the knowledge and experience of our firm and with that of your directors and managers, the most valuable asset because of their specific knowledge of the business or mission.

The mediation strategy provides a decision agenda that runs alongside labor litigation: agreements secured with particular care for their legality, formality and rigor.

We work at every stage hand in hand with the HR and litigation teams, until the case is closed or duly processed.

Mediation builds trust and resolves conflicts at lower cost and with procedural economy, within the framework of formal labor litigation.

Who we do it for

Results that back the method.
