0.1.2 – Community Agreement
💬 TRAINER: COMMUNITY AGREEMENT
Background
When we all take part in creating the rules, then we feel more responsible for them. This is why we need YOU to help us determine the rules that YOU want to follow during your own preparation as a trainer.
Action Steps
Think about some rules of conduct for the training that appreciate and like others to follow.
💬 CREATING A COMMUNITY AGREEMENT
We will now co-create a community agreement.
-
A community agreement includes rules of conduct for the training.
-
Community agreements engage participants in the development of these ground rules so that participants take ownership of the rules and are responsible for them—individually and as a group.
Example COMMUNITY AGREEMENT
💡 TRAINER TIP: Preparing for the community agreement
These can be especially important so we suggest you ensure that they are in the community agreements:
-
Commitment: Commit to being here for the full time of each session.
-
Punctuality: Arriving on time, so you can end on time.
-
Confidentiality: Personal issues and stories shared in the training room will not be shared outside of the training room.
-
Respect each other
-
Be open! (open to learn, open to re-think our assumptions)
