• Commit: Engage in a relationship where both parties agree to terms of commitment; establishing trust, confidentiality and shared interest in the program.

• Communicate: Set standards by defining communication channels, availability and access.

• Document: Capture your shared goals for entering this program. Share an agenda before and notes after any engagement in order to stay true to the goals you’ve established.

• Engage: Build your relationship based on the values, goals and availability of each participant. Each pairing is unique and should be treated as such.
