She has also been engaged by multi-nationals to advise on Conflict Management to their senior Executive teams in both the advertising and media industries. She was the first European to receive the New York based CPR Institute of Dispute Resolution Award for excellence in alternative dispute resolution, 1997. She received an Entrepreneurial Award from European Union of Women 2005 in recognition of outstanding contribution to pan-European understanding and progress that provides inspiration to others. In 2013 Eileen was awarded Queen's Counsel Honoris Causa for her mediation practice and role in founding CEDR. Dr Karl Mackie CBE, Chief Executive, Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution ('CEDR') Karl became CEDR's first CEO in 1990, helping create its international standing as lead executive and chief mediator.

He has strong experience as a business consultant and in his time with CEDR, acted as Consultant or overseen consultancy to World Bank, European Commission and other international project sponsors on business and civil justice system development, with various sovereign governments and civil justice systems including India, Pakistan, Bosnia Herzegovina, China, Denmark, Holland, Qatar and others. He has also worked with various public bodies (FSA, ACAS), government departments (Business, Health, Transport, Community and Planning, Education, Overseas development, Procurement) and industry associations (railways, retail, motor manufacturers, patent and trademarks, insurance, sports etc.) in the development of dispute systems design. Identified by The Lawyer as one of the top 100 most influential lawyers, Karl has also been referred to as "Mr Mediation" by The Times.

Reviews
...an excellent book by two internationally acknowledged experts, pioneers and practitioners in the field of Mediation, which will appeal to a wide readership...this book is a welcome addition to the literature on International Mediation and one, which those with an interest in the subject and those who want to know more about it, would do without at their peril! -- Prof Ian Blackshaw * Global Sports Law and Taxation Reports *
This book, previous editions of which have been received enthusiastically, is authored by two veterans of the alternative dispute resolution world. After setting out the potential for international mediation in business conflict, underlining the popularity of this method of dispute resolution and explaining the power that mediation holds, the book offer practical guidance on the mediation process itself...A particular merit of the Carroll and Mackie's treatment of the subject is that they have included an abundance of case histories which enhance the understanding of the principles and concepts being discussed... * The Commonwealth Lawyer *
