Negotiation Support
Knott Consulting provides culturally informed guidance throughout negotiation processes between organizations and Indigenous communities. Our role is to ensure that discussions are respectful, transparent, and lead to outcomes that reflect the interests of all parties.
Guiding Fair and Balanced Discussions
Why It Matters:
Negotiations can be complex when different worldviews, histories, and priorities are involved. Without the right support, they risk misunderstanding or imbalance. Knott Consulting helps bridge these differences, making sure agreements are developed in a way that builds trust and accountability.
Our Approach:
-
Creating safe and respectful negotiation environments.
-
Centering cultural context and traditional practices where appropriate.
-
Supporting clear, transparent communication between parties.
-
Working toward agreements that benefit both communities and organizations.
Let’s Work Together
Knott Consulting helps organizations and Indigenous communities move through negotiations with clarity, respect, and the confidence that outcomes are fair and sustainable.
Debwewin
The word Debwewin in Anishinaabe means “truth.” It reflects the importance of speaking honestly and living with integrity. In Anishinaabe teachings, truth is more than fact, it is a way of being, where words and actions align with respect for self, community, and the land.
