Terms & Conditions

I ("coach") agree to provide You ("client") with coaching services to facilitate your achievement of specific and agreed goals (“Coaching”) through a series of regular conversations or meetings (“Sessions”) with You on the terms and conditions below.

You and I agree to be bound by the Terms and Conditions of Coaching attached and the details relating to You personally, the Coaching and the Sessions specified below.

A Session may be carried out over the phone or in person at mutually agreed places and times during the Period.

A Session will take place weekly for the time stipulated in the package purchased throughout the Period or at such other times as is agreed during the Period. You must be on time for all Sessions, whether these take place using the phone, zoom or in person.

3. Session Times

24 hours’ notice is required from the coachee to change a session. A session may be deemed to have taken place and charged accordingly if less than 24 hours’ notice is given. I will also give 24 hours’ notice if I need to reschedule a session.

4. Engagement of Coach

I shall arrange to provide the Coaching to you during the Period at mutually agreed times and places. I shall use my best endeavours to make myself available for the entire Period. I may, in my discretion, arrange for a substitute, duly qualified coach to replace me for all or any of the Sessions if I am unavailable for all or part of the Period, and such coach shall thereafter be deemed to be me for the purposes of this agreement.

5. Training of Coach

I warrant that I have completed coach training with the Neuroleadership Institute using the Brain Based Results Coaching Systems and am reasonably capable of performing the Coaching activities.

6. Preparation for Sessions

You agree to perform all actions forming part of the Coaching Sessions and also carry out any act, matter, or thing in preparation for future Sessions as determined by you. You agree to advise me as soon as you become aware that these actions will not or cannot be performed. If you refuse to carry out such actions, then this agreement shall be terminable by me (and the provisions below relating to termination shall apply).

7. Coaching Methods

You acknowledge that the Coaching Sessions may be personally, emotionally and physically challenging and that there may be occasions on which you will feel emotional challenges—including frustration, annoyance, or stress. You must make all efforts and schedule all Sessions at such times to ensure your peak physical, mental, and emotional state and condition necessary for the conduct of the Session and shall (if necessary) take all steps to cancel any Session in the event that you are not well enough to continue. You will not hold me liable for any loss or cost incurred by you (or any person related to you) in the event of mental, physical, emotional stress/distress (or other ailment or condition) caused either directly or indirectly in relation to the Coaching Sessions. You shall indemnify me in the event of any such claim.

8. No Warranties Given

I make no representation or warranty to you that any of the Coaching methods or the Sessions will work for your particular circumstances. You will not hold me responsible for the failure (in whole or part) to achieve any of your goals.

9. Intellectual Property Rights

You have no right to use or reproduce any of the processes, techniques, presentations, methodologies, precedents, and materials used by me in the Coaching activities (“Materials”). You must not at any time use or reproduce the Materials in any manner, shape, or form (except for your own personal use), and shall ensure that none of your servants, agents, or any related bodies corporate use or reproduce the Materials in any manner, shape, or form. You shall indemnify and keep me indemnified in respect of any loss or damage caused or sustained by me in the event of your breach of this paragraph.
