Building A Mastermind Group:
>Mastermind groups help small business owners share ideas in a creative, non-threatening and confidential environment. Here's some tips to starting yours:
Find up to a half-dozen peers in non-competing fields whom you believe are creative, thoughtful and inspiring. Keep it small; large groups can lose focus and intimacy.
Try to establish a regular day and time each month to hold the meeting. If the meetings become too infrequent, their importance and success may be lost. The location can vary to stimulate creativity.
Be prepared. Since members each get time to discuss their issues, bring a list of topics you need to cover. Maybe include creativity games to foster thought.
Act. Once you leave, put your new ideas into action. Then report on your success the next time the group meets.
