BUSINESS COACHING CONTRACT
The engagement runs across three coordinated streams. Each has a defined cadence and closes with a documented deliverable.
PHASE 1 · DISCOVERY + PROGRAM SETUP
Intake, stakeholder interviews, current-state assessment, and a written coaching plan with focus areas and success measures for the term.
PHASE 2 · COACHING
60-minute working sessions on the agreed cadence, session notes captured after each, and email support between sessions on live decisions.
PHASE 3 · MID-TERM INTENSIVE
Half-day intensive at the midpoint of the term to review progress, revisit the plan, and set the direction for the second half of the engagement.
Not included: consulting deliverables, hands-on execution work, guaranteed business outcomes, and coaching for individuals outside the named leadership team. Additional scope can be added in writing at any time.

The Business Coaching Contract template is a five-page agreement for locking in a coaching engagement with a leadership team. It includes an overview with stat cards for focus, cadence, and term, a three-stream scope covering discovery, coaching, and a mid-term intensive, a fee table with a computed total, and an acceptance page with inputs and signatures.
Use it to make cadence, expectations, and confidentiality clear from the start. Merge fields handle the client details and date, and the last page collects a start date, client contact, and both signatures.
Everything below comes pre-configured. Turn sections on or off, edit the copy, or add your own — Bonsai remembers your choices for next time.
Can I edit every section? Yes — every heading, paragraph, stat, table row, and signature block is fully editable in Bonsai.
Can I add more pages? Yes — add, reorder, or duplicate pages once the template is open.
Do merge fields auto-fill? Yes — Sender, Receiver, and Date pull from your client contact and the current date automatically.
