Extend OO Support on a tight budget?
Quality, integrity, and reliability are entry level attributes of an OO, and costs are a consideration in most organizations.
It costs about 65% less to hire in South Africa[1] - with a world class infrastructure and a robust brain pool - than in the US. $ 10,000./ buys about $ 30,000./ worth of value.
I am a mature, well reputed US Citizen living in South Africa, a CEDR[2] Accredited Mediator with over 30 years of business experience and an acute understanding of workplace conflict.
Most of my time is spent studying, writing, advocating, presenting, & interviewing to prepare for the practical experience needed to become a CO-OP®.
I attend the Conferences, have relationships with many of the IOA movers-and-shakers, and have completed…
1. Foundations of Organizational Ombudsman Practice
2. Workshop for Supervisors: Dealing with Conflict Among or Between Supervisees
3. Promoting a Respectful Workplace, Conflict Management
4. Foundations: The Next Step for Growing Organisational Ombuds Programs
…and will be doing the…
5. Advanced Ombudsman Master Class in Seattle in April.
That makes me a new kid on the block !
Having had experience mediating on line and witnessing ODR’s sharp rise in popularity among professionals, OOs’ operating from anywhere in the world is making more and more sense.
If this resonates with you… I am ready to start my internship!!
