Scheduling Links

Availability varies due to changes in my location. To avoid scheduling congestion, I have a soft preference for those in Europe scheduling in their sessions in their mornings and early afternoons (GMT, CET, etc.) because European evenings are often the only time those in North America are able to have sessions. Please reach out at tee@teebarnett.com if none of these times suit.

Good question – could be a number of reasons. In general, you're far more likely to secure a timeslot of your preference by scheduling further in advance, or setting up a recurring time with me (recommended). Availability gets pretty limited if you're scheduling in the very near-term! Potential reasons why availability is limited: • Checking the basics – I have different links for scheduling depending on the location I'm in. Please check above to make sure that you're selecting the link within the correct timeframe • Coaching weeks – My 'coaching weeks' fall on alternating weeks, often with a Friday exception on the off weeks • Timeslot demand – If you're looking to schedule on short notice, as I mention above, demand for timeslots may be incredibly high • Other more typical reasons (off days, weekends, etc.) I'll really try to make the scheduling and rescheduling experience as frictionless as I can. If it is still too difficult to find a suitable time to meet via the scheduling software, please reach out at tee@teebarnett.com

For new clients just getting started with me, a requirement is that the first session be 1.5 hours in order to have a better chance at having a high-value first session. My general recommendation is also 1.5 hrs. thereafter, but hourly sessions are certainly possible. During the intro chat or the initial session, we will chart out the session duration and frequency options that fit your particular situation and needs. Why is it important to have a 1.5-hour initial session? I'd like to get caught up on context relevant to your situation while also having enough time to make the work that we do valuable and actionable. It's quite important for me to hear you describe your relationship to the challenge and the load-bearing assumptions therein. These verbal cues are crucial for me as I build and adjust mental models of the situation. I tend to ask further clarifying questions in order to continue adjusting my models according to your context. At around the halfway mark of an initial session, I tend to have a sufficiently detailed understanding to populate potential shallow, medium and deep interventions aimed at making your plans and future actions more elegant. After I present these options, we then discuss how sensible the options seem to you and how enthusiastic you would be to pursue them moving forward.

Not a formal one unless the need arises. If abrupt cancellations happen very occasionally, that's no problem. If they become a recurring issue, or potentially connected to wider issues regarding respect for time and conscientious communication, we'll likely need to have a direct conversation about how to handle this. I'm open to arriving at a number of potential solutions, but if issues surface regarding adherence to follow through and communication, I might ask that you agree to a 24-hour cancellation policy moving forward. More on the rationale – my feelings about any single coaching relationship mostly hinge on a sense of reciprocal exchange of generosity in spirit and action. In other words, my views on how to handle cancellations incorporate far more than particular instances. As with any relationship of importance, my feelings about any single thing are colored by intention, communication, patterns of behavior, displays of care, etc. In any conversation about this, I'd be curious to explore how our perceptions may align and differ, hopefully reaching an understanding we're both happy with. In the hopes of mutually reinforcing the spirit of following through, when using the scheduling software to set up a session, you agree to the following: "Scouts honor – with the exception of emergencies, I will not to cancel our meeting less than 24 hours prior."

(This is principally because holding your reservation displaces time for others)"
