An Independent Resource for Early Resolution and Stronger Organizations

Johnny R. Armijo II

I help universities, government agencies, and global organizations resolve conflict early through independent ombuds services, confidential consultation, leadership coaching, mediation, and systemic climate insight.

What Is an Ombuds?

An ombuds is an independent, confidential, and neutral resource who helps people explore concerns, understand options, and address issues early. An ombuds does not take sides, investigate, or make decisions for you. The role is to help you move forward with greater clarity.
