Tom Schwab talks about the basic
principles involved in creating and belonging to a mastermind. The
original intent of a mastermind was a group of like-minded people
sharing ideas and resources, trusting in each other. Sometimes
people get confused when they say, “I’m part of a mastermind led by
this famous person, and we all come in and learn from them.” That’s
group coaching, not a mastermind. A mastermind is a long-term
commitment because the more you get to know people and trust in and
understand them, the more value it brings. A mastermind is a
relationship marathon, not a sprint. It’s not just a season or a
trial but something you commit to on an on-going basis.
