About Process North

He delivers bespoke courses on areas including conflict awareness, effective engagement and communication around controversial and disputed issues, and de-escalation techniques. Click here for information on contacting Mike if you are interested in commissioning work through Process North.

As well as providing a route to contact Mike, this website carries information on his writing, and book reviews on issues including mediation, dynamics of social conflict, race relations, populism, ‘extremism’, political identities & more …

It will (hopefully) be of interest to mediators & others working on conflicts and disputed questions; professionals responsible for holding dialogue, debates & discussions on ‘difficult’ & ‘controversial’ subjects; researchers looking at contested issues & social distances; and leaders & activists at all levels in communities, political organisations, local government, campaigning groups & the voluntary sector.
