Focus
[edit]The majority of Thera Rising's work deals with either intervening in or preventing conflicts with organizations – between individuals, factions, departments, etc. At the center of Maravelas's approach is a search for "root causes" of behavior that emphasizes situational factors and differing perspective rather than flawed personalities.[2] These themes can be found across the spectrum of services that Thera Rising provides.
Book
[edit]Maravelas's book, How to Reduce Workplace Conflict and Stress, draws heavily on her experiences working with individuals and organizations. The book contains insights and anecdotes from over two decades of work, and has received generally favorable reviews.[3] It is currently in its fifth publication at Career Press.
