Dear Client: Please review, ensure you understand the terms, then sign where indicated. This agreement is for the Transform —six-month coaching package which includes one 90-minute Intake Session plus seventeen 1-hour coaching sessions to be use within six-to-eight months from the start date of the coaching.
Basic Ground Rules:
• The client calls the coach or logs into the video-conferencing platform (e.g. Zoom) at the scheduled time.
• The client pays the coaching fees in advance.
• The client provides 24 hours notice of cancellation. This coaching agreement between The Client signing this agreement and SquarePeg Leadership Coaching Services is for coaching services to be provided by telephone and/or videoconferencing and will be designed jointly with the client. The goal of coaching, which is not advice, consulting, therapy or counselling, is to address the client’s goals for specific personal, leadership or business development. The purpose of the coaching interaction is to hold your focus on your desired outcome and to coach you to stay clear, focused and in action. The power of the coaching relationship lies in your commitment to the process. If you feel that coaching is not working as desired, you agree to communicate with your coach and co-design actions to return the power to the coaching relationship. As your coach, you have my word that I am 100% committed to you receiving a satisfactory coaching program. Fees are payable as per the payment option you chose upon registering for this coaching package. Extraordinary expenses (e.g. any additional coaching/assessment tools) are extra and will be incurred only with the prior approval of the client. As the client, 1. I understand and agree that I am fully responsible for my physical, mental and emotional wellbeing during my coaching calls, including my choices and decisions. I understand that the coach's services are facilitative in nature, that I am the sole decision-maker in the coaching process and that any decisions made, and actions taken, and the resulting consequences based on the coaching services are completely my responsibility. I release the coach of all liability pertaining to the services rendered during the coaching relationship. 2. I understand that “coaching” is a Professional-Client relationship I have with my coach that is designed to facilitate the creation/development of personal, professional or business goals and to develop and carry out a strategy/plan for achieving those goals. 3. I understand that coaching is a comprehensive process that may involve all areas of my life, including work, finances, health, relationships, education and recreation. I acknowledge that deciding how to handle these issues, incorporate coaching into those areas, and implement my choices is exclusively my responsibility. 4. I promise that if I am currently in therapy or otherwise under the care of a mental health professional, that I have consulted with the mental health care provider regarding the advisability of working with a coach and that this person is aware of my decision to proceed with the coaching relationship. 5. I understand that information will be held as confidential unless I state otherwise, in writing, except as required by law, where permission has been granted, and with respect to tracking names, hours coached, and contact information where necessary for the coach’s certification through the International Coach Federation*. 6. I understand that certain topics may be anonymously and hypothetically shared with other coaching professionals for training or consultation purposes. 7. I understand that coaching is not to be used as a substitute for professional advice by legal, medical, financial, business, spiritual or other qualified professionals. I will seek independent professional guidance for legal, medical, financial, business, spiritual or other matters. I understand that all decisions in these areas are exclusively mine and I acknowledge that my decisions and my actions regarding them are my sole responsibility. 8. I understand that the scheduled coaching session time has been reserved for me and I will honour this such that I will arrive on time and if I need to reschedule, I will provide 24-hours advance notice. I understand that missed sessions and failing to cancel with the required notice, except for emergencies, will result in being billed full fee for the session. 9. I understand that the coach is dedicated to advancing my learning and supporting me in being in action and that only I, the client, am responsible for achieving the results I desire. I agree to grant power to the coaching relationship by informing the coach as to what is needed to keep me moving forward and communicating any desires for the coaching or any concerns I may have with coaching requests, homework or the general direction of the coaching. 10. I understand that quick check-ins, communication, questions for the purpose of accessing a sounding board, or sharing an achievement in between the scheduled coaching sessions is included in the coaching agreement and fees and that this will be brief in nature. Between-session conversations via phone or email that extend beyond 10-15 minutes will be considered a coaching session and billed as such. 11. I am aware that I can choose to discontinue coaching at any time and I agree to provide advance notice to end the coaching relationship and to attend a final Completion session to capture the learning and strategize for what is next in my life. I am aware that I will be reimbursed for any un-used sessions in my coaching package at the time of cancellation. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of British Columbia and the laws of Canada applicable therein. Any and all disputes arising under this Agreement, whether as to interpretation, performance or otherwise, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of British Columbia and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably attorns to the jurisdiction of the courts of such province. I have read, understood, and agree to the above,
