Resolve Business Conflicts with Strategic Mediation
Alignment Before Growth. Helping individuals, founders, partners, and organizations resolve conflict with structure, neutrality, and respect — wherever you are
About Third Space Mediation
The Third Space is the place between perspectives — a neutral ground where understanding begins and productive dialogue can take root. It’s the space where tension becomes clarity, and where conflict turns into collaboration.That idea is at the heart of everything I do.I specialize in creative business mediation — thinking outside the box to help founders, partners, small businesses, and small teams work through conflict, rebuild trust, and realign around shared financial and operational goals.I don’t handle divorce or personal family disputes. My focus is entirely on the relationships that power small business: co-founders, partners, investors, and small teams navigating the challenges of growth, money, and decision-making.My approach blends practical business understanding with structured mediation — creating a neutral space where communication can restart, priorities can realign, and progress can continue without courtrooms or chaos.I believe every thriving business depends on healthy collaboration — and that even the most complex partnership or financial breakdown can be resolved with clarity, honesty, and guided structure.I bring both structure and empathy to every case, balancing business realities with human complexity. My goal is not just to help you reach agreement, but to foster genuine understanding — because that’s where durable solutions and lasting progress truly begin.
Why Choose Mediation?
Private and confidential (no public record like court documents)
Less costly than litigation (going to court)
All parties involved get to fully voice their concerns, and are in control to create an outcome that is a win-win for everyone.
Faster and more flexible—sessions are scheduled on your timeline, allowing resolution in weeks rather than months or years.
Renée Leach, Certified Mediator
Strategic Dispute & Agreement Intervention
With over two decades in business environments and web/software development, I bring a cross-industry perspective that informs a balanced, results-driven approach to financial and business mediation.My experience spans not-for-profit management, financial trading, enterprise and education technology, logistics, real estate development, and AI integration - giving me insight into the operational, technical, and human factors that shape financial outcomes and organizational resilience.I’ve delivered work for organizations including the U.S. Federal Government, the Cherokee Nation, Northrup Grumman, AT&T, IHG, WebMD, Discovery Channel, and Whole Foods Market - advancing systems, communication, and digital capability.Today, I apply that operator’s lens to mediation — helping counterparties surface their underlying interests, quantify trade-offs, and craft durable agreements that protect value, reduce risk, and move initiatives from pitch to reality.My approach is rooted in cultural sensitivity and trauma-informed care, ensuring that every client feels heard, respected, and supported throughout the process. By offering a personalized and thoughtful alternative to the traditional legal system, I help clients make informed decisions and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Business Mediation
Restoring trust, clarity, and collaboration at every level of your business.Conflict is inevitable in business — but costly conflict isn’t.I help leaders, teams, and organizations navigate tension with clarity and structure, transforming disputes into opportunities for alignment, growth, and better decision-making.Through confidential, guided mediation, I work with you to resolve what’s in dispute — and reveal what’s underneath it — so that your business relationships, financial health, and strategic goals stay intact.
My Approach
I don’t see mediation as a last resort. I see it as a strategic intervention — a chance to protect both your working relationships and your bottom line.Through a confidential and guided process, I help organizations and business partners:
Uncover the root causes behind conflict — not just the surface disagreements.
Reframe positions into shared interests, building bridges between perspectives.
Clarify purpose, roles, and expectations to realign vision and decision-making.
Rebuild trust and accountability, strengthening the foundation for sustainable collaboration.
Create communication frameworks that prevent future breakdowns and support ongoing alignment.
Unlike legal or consulting interventions, this process centers the relationship behind the enterprise — the trust, respect, and understanding that make every business plan viable. Whether between partners, teams, or clients, mediation offers not just resolution, but reconnection.When people are aligned, businesses thrive; with renewed clarity, creativity, and cohesion.
Areas of Practice
Partnership and shareholder disputes

Preventative conflict planning (embedding mediation into governance and fiscal systems)
My Work Integrates:
Financial intelligence, to understand and mitigate the real costs of conflict.
Relational awareness, to restore communication and rebuild trust.
Strategic foresight, to ensure resolutions support long-term business sustainability.
Each mediation is structured but adaptive; grounded in neutrality, guided by evidence, and attuned to the human factors that drive business outcomes.
How I Work
Consultation – We begin with a confidential conversation to understand the situation and your goals.
Mediation Session(s) – I facilitate structured discussions designed to surface what matters most and move toward resolution.
Agreement & Integration – Together, we translate outcomes into clear, workable commitments.
Follow-Up Support – I offer post-mediation check-ins to help ensure stability and continued alignment.
A Preventative, Strategic Lens
Beyond resolving active disputes, I work with businesses to build mediation into their annual planning cycles. This proactive approach reduces future risk, stabilizes critical relationships, and improves operational efficiency—transforming mediation from emergency intervention into strategic advantage.
