The Co-Creator's Agreements

Over the past three decades, The Co-Creator's Agreements have been shared with thousands of individuals and groups around the world.  They create a strong foundation for building resonance and avoiding misunderstandings or feelings of separation.  For many teams and families, these Agreements serve as their guiding principles and an expression of their basic values.  We invite you to share these with others and to co-create any changes that feel relevant for you and your team.  For a downloadable copy click here.
