How it Works
Our TDC Mastermind Group has been created to bring like-minded designers and architects together to support one another in a powerful and safe environment of learning, support, and accountability.
Learn from one other’s existing business structure and operations, and support one another in setting aspirational achievable goals, created with the support of trusted industry experts. Regularly hold one other to account, with monthly check-ins and key milestones to complete the necessary work to achieve your goals.
The program commences with a deep analysis of your current business position, providing the opportunity to highlight strengths and identify weaknesses, therefore allowing the Mastermind Group to contribute to the refinement and improvement of your current methods of operation.
The Mastermind curriculum has been intentionally designed to step members through a logical sequence of learning and planning, in order to develop a powerful Business Strategy for 2024 (and beyond).
An Accountability Program encourages regular reporting and analysis of results for a full 12 months to enable members to access the maximum benefits of the Program’s principles.
NOTE: To enable maximum transparency and facilitate the program outcomes, Mastermind Members will be required to openly share critical business statistics about their current business position. All members will be required to sign a non-disclosure agreement to protect the group’s privacy and IP. From a position of honesty and transparency, we can create a platform for genuine support and accountability.
