When I shared the agreements concept with a client, it wasn’t obvious how to put it into practice.
Because of that, I wanted to share an example with you from a business mastermind where we co-authored this agreement (edited for clarity):
We agree to commit to this for six months, then we can re-evaluate. There are three “ground rules” we agree to follow:
- We agree to show up consistently and be mentally present with each other.
- This is a peer coaching environment where we agree to challenge each other in a kind, constructive, and collegial way.
- We agree to hold all conversations, business details, and challenges confidential and not discuss them outside the Mastermind.
We discussed more than we decided here, but this is the actual agreement.
I hope that gives you an idea of what it would look like in practice!
