Southern Butler Price is your neutral resource for addressing workplace issues and conflicts. We use creative, customized tools grounded in fairness and respect to help you build and maintain an exceptional organization.

 

 Our Areas of Practice
__________

Southern Butler Price’s lawyers guide organizations experiencing conflict, or wanting to proactively avoid it, to find the solutions that enhance their commitment to building a positive work environment. We offer this guidance from a position of neutrality, confidentiality, fairness, and respect.

Organizational Growth Through A Rebuild
__________

In response to a resolving conflict, the long-term solution lies in a thoughtful ‘Rebuild’. A Rebuild can combine any of our services to help organizations heal divisions, restore trust, improve policies and procedures, and move forward with positive momentum. A Rebuild is an opportunity to translate problems resolved into learnings for broader organizational growth and positive cultural change. Training, post-mortem review, mediations, assessments, and ‘what did we learn today’ analysis, conducted in a manner that respects privacy and allows for learnings beyond the immediate complaint or concern, support sustainable organizational transformation.
