Personnel Management Assistance

W ith our unique blend of professional credentials in mediation, counseling, and management, Anam Cara can assist you in resolving issues that may be beyond the scope of your organizational resources.

The strength of a team is measured by its cohesiveness. Team performance can be limited by ineffective interpersonal skills, misdirected leadership, relationship problems within the team or differing perspectives on the role of the team. Anam Cara Consultants is experienced in evaluating group dynamics and designing interventions that incorporate the goals of your company.

Often, despite excellent technical skills and subject area knowledge, executives and managers need more advanced interpersonal skills so that they can thrive as leaders. Anam Cara Consultants provides one-to-one and team coaching to help managers resolve specific interpersonal skill deficits and enhance their overall effectiveness within the organization.

Mediation

Mediation can be a win-win answer to conflicts that arise between employees, departments, or management and staff.  Rather than lose valued employees, devolve to working in a toxic environment, or become embroiled in lawsuits, choose mediation as a remedy.

Mediation is a voluntary and confidential process in which a neutral third party assists parties in developing mutually agreeable solutions to resolve conflict or to make decisions about a significant matter. This empowering process, involving choice rather than coercion, is non-binding until the agreement has been put into a written document and has been signed by each party.  Confidentiality ensures that information discussed in mediation will not become evidence in a legal proceeding in the event the mediation is not successful.

Employee Assistance Programs

The most valuable resources of any organization are their employees. When employees are experiencing significant psychological, family, or other life problems, they are not the only ones who are affected.  The significant financial impact of depression on work productivity, the majority of employee absences being for reasons related to substance use disorders, alcoholics being involved in such a high percentage of industrial accidents, and family members of alcoholics using inordinately high sick leave are all reasons to develop an EAP resource for your organization. 

The positive impact of a comprehensive EAP for your company includes fewer absences, help in managing troubled employees, and a significant return on investment for your organization. For your employees, an Employee Assistance Program can mean new possibilities, better relationships, and restored wellbeing and functioning.

Anam Cara will collaborate with you in designing an EAP to provide high quality early intervention, brief treatment, and referral for your employees in need. We are committed to attending to the philosophy and policies of your company when managing problems that contribute to inadequate workplace performance.
