I am very excited to be offering these monthly, evening Mastermind Classes in a structured but relaxed and inspiring format. The format: A facilitator speaks on a popular topic (for instance, the current proposed legislative changes in Washington for Massage Therapy) and the attendees utilize or disregard this information as they see fit. Ideally, the lecture will spark ideas to focus on a particular business or clinical situation. After the lecture, everyone divides into groups to bring concentrated attention to a particular challenge at hand. Each person takes a turn outlining her problem and receiving feedback from teammates. The round is completed when the student has an action plan that is appropriate for to move forward.
