2. Acceptance and Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction to submit a business inquiry, schedule a professional consultation, or enter into an agreement through this website.

If you use this website on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to act on behalf of that organization and to accept these Terms in connection with your use of the website.

  • A consultant-client relationship

  • A coach-client relationship

  • An advisor-client relationship

  • A fiduciary relationship

  • An employment relationship

  • A contractual engagement

  • An obligation for us to provide services

A professional engagement begins only after the appropriate parties have agreed to a separate written contract, proposal, statement of work, engagement letter, booking agreement, or other written arrangement.

We reserve the right to accept or decline any inquiry or proposed engagement.

4. No Legal, Financial, Medical, or Regulatory Advice

The information presented on this website is general educational and business information. It is not intended to constitute legal, financial, tax, accounting, medical, psychological, regulatory, employment-law, or human-resources compliance advice.

Organizational, leadership, employment, and workplace decisions should be made based on the specific facts affecting your organization and, where appropriate, with assistance from qualified legal, financial, medical, compliance, or human-resources professionals.

Nothing on the website guarantees that a specific strategy, framework, assessment, program, or leadership practice will be appropriate for every organization or situation.

5. Separate Agreements for Professional Services

  • Program access

  • Refunds

If a separate signed agreement conflicts with these website Terms, the separate agreement will control with respect to the applicable professional engagement.

Submitting an inquiry or requesting a proposal does not obligate either party to enter into an engagement.

Audience members may take reasonable personal notes. However, presentation slides, exercises, frameworks, videos, stories, handouts, workbooks, and other program materials remain protected intellectual property.

Any event photography, filming, recording, livestreaming, or use of presentation excerpts must be approved in writing and may be subject to additional licensing terms.

We may request that a meeting be rescheduled when reasonably necessary.

15. Books, Bulk Orders, and Third-Party Retailers

16. Assessments and Development Tools

The website may describe Gallup CliftonStrengths, DISC, and other assessment-driven services.

Assessments may be administered by third-party providers and may be subject to their own terms, fees, privacy policies, licensing requirements, and use restrictions.

Assessment results are developmental tools. They should not be treated as medical or psychological diagnoses, guarantees of performance, or the sole basis for employment, promotion, compensation, discipline, termination, or other significant decisions.

Organizations using assessments are responsible for ensuring that their use complies with applicable employment, privacy, accessibility, anti-discrimination, and data-protection requirements.

The remaining provisions will continue in effect.
