PMR’s Partners
Coralie Smets-Gary
As founder of PMR Europe, she held for several years sole responsibility for the training operation, the training faculty and the curriculum on all PMR courses. With her partners she broke new ground by developing the program “Principled Negotiation” for mediators/lawyers/negotiators a development that has had a significant impact on mediation and negotiation in Belgium. The Federal Mediation Commission made this program a mandatory step in every mediator’s training path. Coralie currently works full time as a mediator, where she is seen as a leading practitioner in the field, and as a coach and trainer. As a mediator, she is requested by many parties in a wide range of disputes. She is affiliated with the Brussels’ Bar as Honorary Lawyer.
