Group Coaching Calls and Events - For group sessions, the coach rents access to the conference telebridge line and each client is responsible for any long distance telephone call charges incurred. If for some reason there is a problem accessing this line, coach will provide a backup number to group members ahead of time. Times and agendas for the group is sent to the client ahead of time via email messages. The teleconference bridge numbers are private. Teleconference numbers will only be released to members of the group. All group members agree not to give this number out to anyone else.
Confidentiality - Our discussions will be considered confidential and I shall use reasonable care in maintaining confidentiality. I make no express or implied warranties or guarantees and will not be held personally responsible for any inadvertent violation of confidentiality unless it is proven to be willful with foreseeable direct, material harm to you. You understand that telephonic, email, fax, efax and other online methods may not be secure and that archives of email communication may be subject to electronic interception or may be kept by third parties (such as employer-based voice mail and email systems, so keep this in mind if you decide to communicate with me from work) and be subject to court orders. The client understands that there may be exceptions to coach-client confidentiality that may include responding to court orders. And in the event of discovery of child or elder abuse or the client's intent to cause harm to herself/himself or others, the coach will take all reasonable and appropriate action which may include breaching confidentiality. If client contacts coach individually by email and/or phone, client agrees to provide coach with specific instructions as to where/how you want to be contacted, what information is okay to leave as a message and an emergency contact.
Group Confidentiality - As a member of the group, client agrees, while participating in the telegroups, in order to create a safe space where members can freely share, to not reveal confidential information to any third party, including the names and addresses of group members, without the consent of that group member. Further, the coach agrees not to reveal any private, one-on-one communications to the group without the consent of the group member. Members should keep in mind however, that the coach cannot control the behavior of members and will not be held liable for their ultimate actions. Everyone recognizes that in certain rare and unusual situations, the coach or a group member will be required by law or ethical considerations to reveal confidential information. Examples of these unusual situations include but are not necessarily limited to: when required by a court of law such as when a coach or group member is called to testify; when a coach or a group member learns of information that poses a danger or threat of harm or injury to a person; when required by ethical obligation or law to report, such as if a coach or group member learns of child or elder abuse.
Definition of Confidential Information - There are two types of confidential information that may be shared in the group. The first type of confidential information includes all business records, plans, proprietary information and intellectual property of the group members. Group members may also communicate information of a personal and intimate nature to the group as part of their relationship. Group members should assume that group member who shares these types of information wants said information to remain confidential. Confidential information does not include information that is known to the general public, is revealed to others outside of the group in the course of doing business, or which is communicated with the consent of the group member. Group members may sometimes also communicate confidential information privately to the coach.
Recording of Meetings - Group members are not allowed to tape group calls. Coach will be recording the calls for later distribution to group members only. Group members are urged to keep said recordings private/for their ears only. Coach owns the rights to these recordings.
Conflict of Interest - The parties also recognize that the coach may occasionally be in a position of discovering a conflict of interest between group members or may discover a conflict that the coach has with a particular group member. All agree that the coach may take any actions necessary to resolve the conflict, including, in extreme situations, to terminate the relationship. The group members agree that the coach does not have to reveal the exact nature of the conflict if to do so would violate confidentailaity of one of the members.
Communication - This agreement constitutes the complete agreement between coach and client and no other representations have been made regarding outcome. As your coach, I make no guarantees or warrantees, expressed or implied, about any results to be achieved. The coaching process is designed to support an individual in making and following through on choices that further his/her personal and professional development. While there are high expectations of professional and personal growth as a result of coaching, there are no guarantees. The results are directly related to changes someone is willing and capable of making in his/her attitudes, behaviors, habits, and approaches. We understand there are no guaranteed results from this program and we are solely responsible for making each of our own decisions, taking any actions, and creating our own outcomes. We realize that there may be unintended effects of taking this program and we take full responsibility for those effects and hold coach harmless. I understand these coaching services do not include: expert advice particular to my business, field, or industry; financial or legal advice; therapy; training or psychological counseling. I understand these coaching services do not include the promise of: procurement or production of business or sales, performance of management functions, procurement of employment for me or attainment of specific objectives or outcomes. From time to time coach may provide you with information regarding other providers of services or goods. All referrals made by the coach are subject to independent evaluation by the client and no warranty or representation regarding their services is made by the coach. In the event I feel a need for professional counseling or therapy or if the coach recommends same, I understand that it is my responsibility to seek the services of a licensed professional. I understand there are no guaranteed results from this program and I are solely responsible for making my own decisions, taking any actions, and creating my own outcomes.
