The Top 5 Tips for Creating Your Own Mastermind Group



Many months ago, good friend, fellow entrepreneur and corporate coach Glenn Andrew lured me to the Marriott Marquis in Times Square for a casual meeting. After a few sodas Glenn popped a question: “Do you have any tips for my readers on forming a Master Mind Group?”

We chatted for a little on the subject and then I realized it required far more than light discussion, it needed a list of do’s and don’ts. I told Glenn I’d get back to him with my list.

A week later I emailed him my ideas and then forgot about it. So yesterday I get some correspondence from Glenn reminding me of what I had written down. Wow, someone actually listens to my ramblings…AND saves them! (Thank you Glenn) The results of that question are my 5 tips that have come from 30 years as an entrepreneur, business owner, board member, speaker and author.
