Press release for Grande Lum's return with new expertise to Accordence as Senior Advisor

Accordence's Managing Director, Ms. Heather Meeker Green, is pleased to announce that Ms. Rachel DiGiammarino has joined its team as Director of Business Development.

In a recent interview, columnist Michael Toebe discussed with Heather Meeker Green, the Managing Director of Accordence, brain science, anecdotes, and suggestions about solving relationship puzzles and breaking through resistance and conflict.

Grande Lum’s recent e-book “Tear Down the Wall: Be Your Own Mediator in Conflict” strongly resonates with recent business and leadership research. David Gebler has found that commitment, integrity, and transparency are the essential building blocks for nearly all business transactions. With the insights from Lum’s e-book, Gebler believes that these three values are essential to conflict mediation as well.

It takes two to reach an agreement. Heather Meeker Green, the Managing Director of Accordence, was featured in Forbes to discuss how people navigate conflicts with one another, as highlighted in Grande Lum's new e-book "Tear Down the Wall".
