FAQ’s
-
The purpose of a mastermind is to give space for its members to trade ideas, experiences and perspectives. Typically, mastermind groups meet over the course of weeks or months on a regular basis. Our mini-mastermind event is designed to concentrate on the exchange of feedback within a single, dynamic hour.
Here’s what to expect during the mastermind rounds:
Small Group Setting: You will be part of a small, intimate group consisting of just 4 members. This setup is designed to foster quality interactions and provide personalized feedback.
Spotlight Session: Each participant will have a dedicated 15-minute spotlight session. This is your time to present your 'ask'—whether it’s seeking advice, brainstorming solutions, or simply getting encouragement to move forward.
Group Brainstorming: After presenting your 'ask', the rest of your group will engage in a focused brainstorming session. They will offer their insights, advice, and perspectives to help you tackle your challenge.
-
Focus on the Presenter: Keep the conversation centered on the presenter’s specific request for feedback. This ensures everyone’s challenges get the attention they deserve.
Be Concise: Share your feedback succinctly and directly. Avoid long personal anecdotes that stray from the main discussion.
Encourage Balance: If you tend to dominate conversations, consciously pause to give others space to contribute. Conversely, if you usually prefer listening, take the initiative to share your insights too.
Active Participation: Challenge yourself to contribute to the conversation, whether by offering insights or asking clarifying questions to better understand the presenter’s situation.
