https://insidemc.montgomerycollege.edu03-28-202403-28-202403-28-2024Thursday, March 28, 2024Thursday, March 28, 20240174b8f95c-6526-abb4-992a-0e571ba75924817722017-05-25 00:00:01.000Julie WeberNeutrality, the Ombuds, and YouHi again. While I recently discussed how conversations with the ombuds remain truly confidential (unless one of two exceptions exists), today I want to discuss another important and unique aspect of the ombuds office - the fact that the ombuds is a designated neutral. More specifically, I want to share how the neutrality of the ombuds benefits you as a visitor to the office.
Like confidentiality, neutrality is required by the International Ombuds Association (IOA), an organization that oversees the ombuds profession. In fact, the IOA Code of Ethics specifically states that the ombuds is a "designated neutral, remains unaligned, and impartial. The Ombudsman does not engage in any situation which could create a conflict of interest."
Moreover, the IOA Standards of Practice describe in more detail that an ombuds "strives for impartiality, fairness and objectivity in the treatment of people and the consideration of issues. The Ombudsman advocates for fair and equitably administered processes and does not advocate on behalf of any individual within the organization."
While the language may sound overly formal to anyone who is not an ombuds, please know that it has a number of practical positive consequences for you as the visitor. First, it means that you as the visitor can know that the ombuds will hear what you are saying impartially and consider it fairly; she will not render a judgment, criticize you, or try to persuade you to act one way or another. In addition, it means that the ombuds does not have a stake in the outcome of the matter you are describing (and further, if for some reason she did have a stake, she would be prohibited from assisting you as the visitor). Importantly, without having a stake in the outcome, the ombuds is then freed to act in an unaligned fashion, listening in an objective and evenhanded way to help you find ways to resolve your issue(s).
As a result of this neutrality mandate, the ombuds does not take sides, does not advocate for one party over another, and does not represent management. Thus, if you are a visitor to the office (or I meet you outside of the office in my capacity as an ombuds), I am not taking on your perspective and "your case" (like an attorney may), regardless of what your role is at the College. Rather, I am there to help each and every visitor find his/her own way through conflict/issues; I actively listen to the visitor describe his/her issue, and then help the visitor identify and analyze options for resolution so *the visitor* may choose the best option for resolution for himself/herself.
Additionally, being neutral allows for the ombuds to be well situated to help you if you are in conflict with a co-worker, manager, or other MC employee, and would like to have a facilitated conversation or a mediation with the ombuds' participation. Again, the neutrality of the ombuds supports the ombuds role of listening and hearing each party's perspectives, helping each party involved in the conflict hear and understand the other party's perspectives, and assisting the parties in coming up with collaborative solutions to possible problems, if appropriate.
Furthermore, being neutral and open to all perspectives and experiences allows the ombuds to provide information from numerous perspectives to management, where appropriate, to help improve MC. Ultimately, this allows the ombuds to have a unique role in sharing identified trends of concern and opportunities for positive change with management that you as the visitors have brought to my attention (while either maintaining your confidentiality, or using your name only when given express permission by you). In short, visiting with the neutral ombuds is another way for your perspectives to be brought to management's attention for consideration.
Finally, it is important to note that although the ombuds generally remains unaligned, neutral, and impartial regarding parties, positions, or outcomes, the ombuds does advocate routinely for fair process for all employees at MC. As the Ombuds Office at William & Mary states on the school's website, "The only advocacy role [for the ombuds] is for fair process."
