Butler ADR & Consulting approach is structured in the conflict theories centered within organizational, deployment psychology, and the familial interpersonal dynamics — understanding that the conflict is rarely one-dimensional and stems from disconnection or misalignment in communication styles. We Recognize that there are different styles to communication, cultural, intersectional, and multi-generational perspectives to every problem. That is why we center solution-focused conflict management skills and procedures, restorative practices, and strategic communication techniques to help clients produce productive dialogue, implement organizational structures, mirror mutual respect, and achieve sustainable outcomes. Here we provide various facilitation methods, transformational management, and thoughtful engagement, to environments so participants are validated, seen, heard, respected, and empowered throughout the resolution process.

Our consulting service is established to service decision-makers, or managers within various departments in HR, Employee Relations, EEO/DEI, Military-servicing programs, Service Members, and individual leaders seeking confidentiality, industry expertise, relationship preservation, cost, and time efficiency. Whether in-person in the state of NY or virtually for clients within the United States and active duty members overseas, Butler ADR & Consulting services are designed to foster prevention structures, collaboration mindsets, accountability, long-term resolution, and avoid the costs of lawsuits and litigation.

Butler ADR & Consulting is here to do more than resolve your disputes—it is here to help you strengthen your relationships, improve the workplace culture, and create pathways toward sustainable communication and growth.
