Speaker Bio

Sharon Crooks

Sharon is passionate about helping people to communicate well and find solutions to challenging issues. Her in-house HR roles at Diageo, Sony Music and Hilton International were formative, and enabled her to develop a freelance consulting practice that has served a diverse range of clients for over 20 years. Training as a civil and commercial mediator started out as a way to broaden her offering to clients and prompted a whole new focus on dispute resolution, conflict coaching, restorative practice and non-violent communication. This has included volunteering as a Restorative Justice Tutor at a men’s prison, a Community Mediator in two London Boroughs, and facilitating circle discussions about racial justice and equality in various contexts.

Sharon established Peacewell in 2018 as a not-for-profit offering mediation, training and conflict coaching and completed a Masters in Conflict Resolution in Divided Societies at King’s College London in 2021. Her particular area of interest is in facilitating cross- community dialogue in post-conflict societies and she recently became a Trustee of Corrymeela, the oldest peace and reconciliation centre in Northern Ireland.
