Access the commitment form here.
You’re going to make a commitment to get something done before the next session. This doesn’t have to be a big thing but it does have to be something that moves your business forward. Progress is often made in baby steps rather than large strides.
Once you hit submit on the form you will receive an email that will contain a PDF listing your commitment/s. I would recommend printing this out and signing it. Then place somewhere you will see it on a regular basis to remind yourself of the commitment you made.
In this section, you'll find our Step by Step Strategies.
Twelve intensive half-day meetings.
