Dave Walker MBE will teach the Permission to Share method, a transformative approach to effective conflict resolution.
Dave has been mediating since 1985 and is an accomplished high-conflict mediator and trainer, has featured in TV programmes about mediation, and regularly lectures and presents on the topic nationally and internationally.
Dave was awarded an MBE in 2007 for his outstanding contribution to mediation.
Recently, Dave presented at the Civil Justice Council's 13th National Forum and at the Civil Mediation Council's Conference about alternative dispute resolution and the Permission to Share method.
This methodology enables mediators to deliver succinct, neutral summaries of clients' perspectives, facilitating resolution.
The Permission to Share method can be applied to:
- Court-Ordered Mediation

- Schools, Teachers and Parents
- Family Law – Divorce & Separation
- Complex Cases Involving High Conflict, Hate Crimes, or Anti-Social Behavior
- Gang-Related Disputes, Including Homicide & Violence
