Amanda Bucklow is one of the UK’s most revered mediators, whose ability to remain impartial, actively listen and understand the underlying issues, personalities and emotions influencing conflicts has helped countless parties generate creative solutions and build peace.
Among her many skills is the way that she blends her very high levels of emotional intelligence with a distinctly commercial mindset to guide discussions in a way that’s informed, realistic and specific.
Amanda is an excellent guide for parties navigating complex conflicts, and she was an invigorating thrill to interview.
She really does have a remarkable approach to problem-solving — and, for me, personally, as a journalist and interviewer, she is one of the most fascinating and informed people that I have spoken to in the past 25 years.
She really is someone who opened my eyes, and hopefully, as a listener, you might experience this, too.
Thank you very much for listening — and wishing you all the best,
Ben.

7: Ben Wilson meets Emma Woollcott, Reputation Protection icon and Partner at Mishcon de Reya
Thank you for joining The World’s Greatest Lawyer, where my aim is to understand what makes the world’s greatest problem-solvers tick. This episode’s interview is with the incredible Emma Woollcott, Partner at Mishcon de Reya and Head of their Reputation Protection and Crisis Management Team.
For me, her success in her role is proof that she has an attribute that myself and many others aspire to in their own lives: What the writer Ernest Hemingway referred to as having ‘grace under fire.’ It’s the value of maintaining one's dignity, poise, and humanity even when faced with the most harrowing and challenging situations. It's a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the depth of human character.
It was an honour to interview Emma, discuss her career, hear her unique perspectives and learn more about her personal code when confronting challenges with courage and honour while advocating for her clients.
Thank you for listening, and I hope you enjoy our conversation.
