There is always a synergy of commitment, excitement, and energy when people work together, and this is what a mastermind group is all about. A mastermind group is a peer-to-peer mentorship project that helps members find solutions to problems they face. The concept was launched by Napoleon Hill in the early 90s, when he wrote about how people can work together to grow richer. According to Napoleon, there is power in coordinating efforts and knowledge among others of your industry.

How do mastermind groups work and what is their purpose?

Normally, a group of smart individuals meet on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis to discuss different challenges, and come up with practical approaches. They advise each other, lean on one another, share connections, and partner in businesses. Overall, the group serves the following purposes:

  • Avails practical ideas and solutions from brainstorming.
  • Delivers experience and skills from others who have faced similar challenges.
  • Enhances progress and accountability in the participants’ personal lives and business.
  • Provides an immediate and resourceful support network.
  • Facilitates positivity in everyday lives of the participants.

Who should join a mastermind group?

Anyone who fits in any of these categories should attend the mentoring group:

  • A person with similar interests as the participants of the group or the facilitator.
  • Anyone who is determined to be successful and skilled in a particular field.
  • An individual who wants to exceed his or her goals.
  • An individual who is determined to overcome his or her fears.

What benefits can you enjoy from a mastermind group?

As a business owner, you stand to gain the following seven benefits from a Mastermind Group:

1. Become an exclusive member of a great group: As a member of a Mastermind Group, you are invited to the group’s gatherings, and your input becomes valuable. In short, they become needful of you as you are needful of them.

2. Collaboration: Within the group, you may find someone who is eligible and willing to work on a business project with you. You can also be the missing piece of someone’s business puzzle.

3. A pool of advice: Once in a Mastermind Group, the feeling of being alone becomes a forgotten notion. You are able to access great advice from experienced individuals.

4. Cross-promotion: Mastermind Group allows you to help others as you also promote your business.

5. Network extension: The Mastermind group allows your business to stretch its network and expand exponentially. This is great if you are looking at growing fast.

6. Think bigger: From the name of the concept, joining a Mastermind Group gives you a ‘Master Mind’. You can be able to do amazing things with a smart head.

7. New business lessons: Every participant in the group is different in skill, connection, and experience. You will always learn something new each day you meet.

Finally, let’s not forget that the most successful mastermind groups are often led by one or more people who are where you want to be. They may have decades of experience and have guided others through the pitfalls along the journey and led them to success. These leaders will not dictate the course of a mastermind progress, but will help to guide and provide expert advice along the way, so that it is not a group of the blind leading the blind. Often, this is the most beneficial part of the mastermind group – as you essential get a mentor or coach for a fraction of the cost of private mentoring.

With these ideals in mind, it is a good idea for all business owners (or those who WANT to be business owners) to seek out and participate in at least one mastermind group on a regular basis. But how do you find the right fit for you? This will be the topic covered in my next post, so be sure to check back here in a week!
