Business conflicts between and within companies are of all times. Often it is a conflict with others and sometimes with yourself. As a creative business mediator and business coach, I help with this. With the premise that everyone is "right" in a conflict and solutions are found by understanding each other's interests. In this way, business conflicts are resolved and relationships are maintained. Also the good relationship with yourself.
Why choose ZEST42?
My name is Olaf Smits (1980). For over twenty years I have been working as a Transfer Pricing Specialist for international SMEs and large corporations. The last ten years as an independent entrepreneur. I look through the numbers at people and what moves them. I see conflict situations arising early on and can prevent or resolve them. That's where I get my satisfaction. It made me a creative entrepreneur and natural mediator. I further developed into a certified business mediator (MfN, ADR and NMv) and business coach. With the aim of resolving conflicts more effectively by approaching them differently: contemporary, effective, creative and no-nonsense. As Zest42.
Structured with freedoms
My approach follows a logical but flexible structure. After all, every conflict is different and requires a specific approach. I carefully map out the interests and motivations of the parties involved. My questions will sometimes surprise you but always take you further. Recognizing that there are multiple perspectives is the most important gamechanger for resolving conflicts, both individual and group.
