The following is a Coaching Agreement for use between MTD coaches the fund-raising missionaries, so they communicate well on the expectation of their coaching relationship.  The paragraphs below can be copied & pasted into an email. Then the coach and coachee can review and agree on how they will work together. As a coach, you are free to modify the Agreement to fit your situation. 

This can be referred to at later dates in your coaching relationship. 

Reliant expects…  

• The MTD Coach and New Missionary to be present at coaching times and be timely in communication. 
• That these coaching appointments are equivalent to face-to-face meetings, which means you are in our "offices", looking at our screens and listening providing full attention to the primary task of MTD and its topics.  In other words, we refrain from giving secondary attention as happens if we are driving, running errands, doing other jobs.  
• That the coachee also maintains a presence in their Christian community and with the Lord personally for spiritual sustenance and personal accountability. 
  
  

As the coach, I will offer before the Lord:   As a coach, my commitment to you is to provide:

• Weekly coaching, in the form of regularly scheduled meetings, to review

• your MTD progress

• , and timely communication.  
• Weekly intercession for you.  
• To support

• YOU as

• YOU seek solutions, perspective, and guidance for the demanding responsibility of support raising.  
• To do my best to keep in step with Scripture, your local management, and Reliant, and to be accountable to them.  
• To be both humble and honest with you,

• especially if I need to say things you might not like to hear.
