Role Design & Mediation

Clear Roles. Aligned Teams. Healthy Boundaries.


When job roles are fuzzy: tensions rise.


We help you define responsibilities, mediate tricky conversations, and create working agreements everyone can trust.


Whether it’s co-founders stepping on each other’s toes, overlapping leadership roles, or a team stuck in silent confusion — we step in to mediate, clarify, and co-design role agreements that actually work.

When Roles Become a Source of Tension

Sometimes the conflict isn’t loud — it’s quiet.
Discomfort. Ambiguity. A sense that something’s off, but no one’s naming it.


When roles are unclear or shift without conversation, tension builds. Work slows. People start filling gaps, stepping on each other’s toes, or quietly disengaging.


It’s not just about titles — it’s about power, trust, and expectations.
We help surface the real issues, mediate the hard conversations, and co-create role clarity that holds up under pressure — so your people can move forward with confidence.

What we offer:

  • Fast Diagnosis of Role Tension
    We quickly surface what’s unclear, where the friction is, and what’s getting in the way.
  • Live Facilitation to Untangle Roles
    Structured conversations to clarify ownership, resolve overlap, and define decision-making boundaries — in real time.
  • Mediation Where Power or Politics Are in Play
    Neutral support for emotionally or politically sensitive dynamics between peers, managers, or senior leaders.
  • Working Agreements People Actually Use
    Co-created role and responsibility agreements — clear, human, and practical, not HR-speak.
  • Strategic Input for Role (Re)Design
    Help with shaping or adjusting roles during growth, leadership transitions, or re-orgs — so they stick.
  • Light-Touch Implementation Support
    We stay involved just enough to help embed changes into day-to-day work and culture.


This is for you if:

  • Promotions, re-orgs, or growth have muddied responsibilities
  • You’re managing conflicting expectations across leadership, HR, and union stakeholders
  • Founders or senior leaders are clashing over unclear ownership
  • Teams are stalling, duplicating effort, or passing blame
  • Frustration is rising, but no one’s naming it
  • You sense a political blowup coming — and want to stop it
