Adam is joined by Enda Young, Managing Director of Mediation Northern Ireland for this episode of Mediation Matters. Enda is an experienced mediator with over two decades in the sector. He tells us how he switched from mechanical engineering to a mediation career after being involved in the dialogue around the Northern Ireland conflict at a young age. After attending a one-day training on mediation, Enda asked himself how he could do this for the rest of his life. He shares the chronicles of his work in this discussion with Adam and outlines the skills needed to be a great mediator. 

Adam is joined by three wonderful women colleagues from Global Mediation to mark International Women's Day on March 8th, 2023. Martha Monday (COO), Zonelle Richardson (Area Lead), and Natalie Gersch (Deputy Area Lead) sit down with Adam to talk about their career experiences as women in the workplace, views on how women positively impact business as well as the challenges that come with work/life balance. They answer the question of whether women make better mediators and discuss the opportunities ahead of us to build a more inclusive and equal world.
