terms of service

 KILDAY’S TERMS OF AWESOME.

Most “terms” and “policy” documents are written by lawyers and feature impenetrable jargon with the overarching concern of CYA nit-pickery. They’re not necessarily a raw deal for you as the customer, but they’re not terribly interesting or useful, either.

These Terms of Awesome are for YOU: the terms that you can expect and demand as a client of Ken Kilday, LLC dba Leader’s Cut: The Ken Kilday Coaching Experience (‘Ken’ or ‘Ken Kilday’ or ‘Leader’s Cut’). They have NOT been run through a legal team and are not meant to hold up in a court of law. Rather, they are meant to hold up in life-as-actually-lived: these are largely an account of my leadership principles, and I figure I may as well publicly document these practices.

Stated here and now in this very public way, THIS is what you can count on as a client of Ken Kilday:

Every person considering Executive Business Coaching, Team Effectiveness Implementation, or LinkedIn Coaching (or other services) may have a Breakthrough Strategy Session gratis. Many have a sense that they would like a partner in their process to seek answers, become aware and through that grow and develop. This is the time to see 1) if I can serve you, 2) how I can serve you, and 3) if you want me to serve you.

You can add additional or change Service as needed. The structure that I created is a starting point, not an absolute – know that we have an abundance of flexibility in how we design what will work for you and your organization, business unit, or company.  I believe in bundling when you are combining my Services. If you are biting off more than will serve you best, I will say so.

You will be billed in advance for the term we agree. You are paying to use my expertise for a period in which we will work together in pursuit of specific goals you outline and perhaps additional goals that are uncovered. As a starting point I generally recommend meeting weekly to keep momentum. We can meet less frequently, or we can add check-ins as needed. You have paid for a period, not a fixed number of sessions. We can be flexible in deciding how you are served best.

If you have requests or suggestions on how Ken could serve you better, they will be heard and answered. If you have a question about the process, billing, or anything else, then speak up. A key element of leadership is ‘going on the record’ whether that is compliment or concern. I shall do my best to answer and address in succinct clarity.

If you need guidance and support in getting going with the platform and using it to its fullest, you will have it. It is my strongly held belief that tools serve the person and not the other way around. The coaching software is designed to enhance our communication, provide structure, and track accountability. I will not place metrics in the system for you – your commitment is first demonstrated by you placing the metric / timeframe / etc. in the system. Appointments can be changed by either of us. Don’t see the time or day you like? Ask (text, email, or call).  I set up my calendar for ‘standard’ business hours and recognize that you may need something else – I’m open to that.

I take confidentiality seriously. My intention is to serve you so well that you will 1) accomplish more than your goals reflect, 2) you inherently feel inspired by our work together, and 3) refer me to others I can serve that share our drive and mindset. That said, I will not tell others we work together unless you have made it abundantly clear that you have made it public. I certainly will not share our conversations with others.

If you want to put your account on hold but not be billed for it, you can ask for that favor and it will be granted. Life happens in a timeline not always of our choosing. If we need to ‘hold’ until you have taken care of a serious matter (i.e. life, death, birth, illness) let’s talk about that. Part of coaching is working through ‘busy’ and that doesn’t mean that we power through when a tsunami my hit.

You will be related to as a person, not a number. I founded my practice with a fervent belief that we are all better in business, and life in general, when we approach every single person with high expectation, deep compassion, and focus on natural genius. You can expect that from me and I would be grateful to be held accountable to do so.
