CSSP Services

In recent years despite the gains of globalization, financial and social insecurity continues to rise, especially in countries torn apart by war or political conflicts. CSSP is dedicated to supporting all actors both public and private in their effort to creating value, success and a sustainable future. In this regard we offer a wide variety of market-based services. The funds generated by these services are reinvested in our field projects. If CSSP can be of service to you, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Mediation/Facilitation

If your organization or company is operating in a place in which inter-community conflicts are prevelant, there is no doubt that these conflicts will have a spiller-over effect on your activities.  Often projects get delayed, not implemented or ignored out of political reasons.  CSSP works with actors on the ground and across the globe to solve problems arising from these types of conflicts. We have extensive experience in bringing key decision-makers to the table in outcome-oriented processes.  If you are experiencing a lack of trust, delays in implementation or obstruction, CSSP can support you in your efforts to overcome the stalemate and find winning solutions. 

Leadership Consulting

CSSP is known for its discrete and supportive approach to problem-solving. We have experience in coaching political and business leaders to think through their problems and find sustainable solutions to pressing concerns. We work one-on-one with our partners to make sure problem-solving is not only productive but also sustainable in the long-term.  We have expertise in gender mainstreaming, diversity management, integration, leadership reform agendas and multi-stakeholder processes.

Conflict/Risk Analysis

Investing in a post-conflict area can be risky and full of challenging moments in which you might want to just pullout and give up.  Before entering a market CSSP can work with our team to assess the political situation in the country.  In the past we have worked with local leaders and international companies to assess and define benchmarks for moving forward. However, risk assessment is not enough.  CSSP also works with you and local leaders to be pro-active in assessing potential solutions and next steps which will overcome or minimize those risks and challenges.

Problem-solving workshops

Over the years our approach has focused on slowing down the process and working on problems in a systematic way. Especially in highly charged conflict situations, there is a need to work on the problem through different formats and with enough time to think through the solutions, the consequences and the implications of the options presented. In our workshop format we bring leaders around the table and urge them out of their comfort zones and into the realm of creativity. We challenge them to turn their perspective upside down and to see things from every angle before making a decision. In the end leaders make decision and take responsibility for their actions.
