The art and science of agreement

At Chōtei, we view negotiation and mediation not as battles to be won, but as complex problems to be solved. Our approach is rooted in the principles of interest-based negotiation, blending rigorous analytical preparation with a deep understanding of human psychology and communication dynamics.

Our founder is a certified mediator and negotiation specialist with over 15 years of experience guiding organisations through high-stakes situations. His versatility is a hallmark of the Chōtei approach. Having held leadership roles across both the private and not-for-profit sectors, he understands the unique pressures of different organisational cultures. 

With extensive training from world-renowned institutions and hands-on experience across diverse sectors, we provide a unique blend of theoretical knowledge and practical wisdom. This alows us to navigate the most complex multi-party disputes and achieve harmony through structured, respectful dialogue.
