Make 2017 an Amazing Year with a Coaching Mastermind Group
Posted on December 21, 2016 by Dawn Zivanovich, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.
A mastermind group is designed to help you navigate through your challenges using the collective intelligence of others.
A mastermind group is a team of like-minded people that get together and help each other formulate and achieve their goals. It’s a place where you feel safe to share, and where you can discuss and explore questions, issues and challenges. The group is small and facilitated by a coach. You receive positive strategies and techniques from all the group members to help you move forward with your goals. And you get to offer your expertise to others in the group. As well, an integral part of our Masterminds involve a one on one coaching session to clarify your goals and identify your challenges and issues.
Let me list some of the benefits:
1) Group meetings are efficient! This is why the big companies have “scrums” daily! “Scrums” is a rugby term for team members binding together. Why? Because team members provoke you, support you, offer ideas, keep you on track, focused and accountable.
2) You’ll be part of an exclusive community of people who want to get “stuff” done!! And getting your stuff done and the rewards this brings is what life is about.
3) That feeling of “being alone” while figuring things out is gone. Your team is a great source of support!
4) Collaboration is the name of the game and putting more heads together a couple of times a month saves you time and energy.
5) By joining a mastermind, you instantly add to your network and typically gain the networks of those in the group with you.
6) People in your Mastermind group make you think bigger. You can’t help but think bigger and stretch beyond your boundaries when surrounded by amazing people doing amazing things.
7) Everyone in the mastermind is unique in skill, experience and connections. It’s almost certain that someone in your mastermind will have a solution for you (or know someone who does), and you may also be able to offer a technique, connection or tactic to help another member of the group.
Mastermind groups are usually business-oriented but the focus could also be on building mindfulness, becoming healthy, or improving parenting skills!
If you feel frustrated because you’re stuck or drifting aimlessly, if you question your abilities or feel overwhelmed and stressed, then a Mastermind could be right for you. The combination of individual coaching and group collaboration can do wonders for you in clarifying your goals, looking at your options and finding the solutions you need.
