The problem it solves
Organizations often struggle with ineffective communication and avoidance of conflict, which can hinder productivity and employee satisfaction.
How it makes money
Offer training packages for companies on a per-employee basis or as a subscription service for ongoing training and support.
Skills you need
Conflict resolution expertise, training facilitation, knowledge of organizational behavior, and business development.
The market, and why this works now
Mid-sized tech companies with 100-500 employees often face communication breakdowns that lead to unresolved conflicts. The growing emphasis on workplace mental health regulations encourages these organizations to invest in conflict resolution training. A first-revenue move could involve advertising on the HR-focused platform Workable, targeting companies seeking to improve employee relations. A constraint in the first year will be the need for significant upfront capital to develop training materials and hire skilled facilitators.
