Building Restorative Relationships in the Workplace: Goodwin Development Trust’s Journey with Restorative Approaches
A major piece of research into building restorative workplaces by the Goodwin Development Trust has found that implementing restorative justice helped managers to share the pressure for decision making, hold their team more accountable and develop better communication and working relationships. The report also found that managers were dealing with fewer problems in the team as colleagues were now resolving issues between themselves.
However, the report also found that the progression to becoming a restorative workplace can be a difficult and even frustrating culture change. The report concludes with a recommended model, the “Structured Evolutionary Method”, to provide a flexible approach to introducing restorative approaches into the workplace taking into account the issues which organisations are likely to face.
