ROUNDTABLE GROUND RULES

​1. Confidentiality – in order to encourage productive personal and business improvement, members may share information they would not talk about in a traditional sales-oriented networking environment. The open sharing of challenges and advice requires confidence that no information shared in the Roundtable will be discussed outside of the group.

2. No Selling – the Roundtable is focused on free exchange of advice and experience. Prospecting for clients or offering of professional services is not allowed. The MCEDC’s Business Resource Committee is an excellent source of professional services providers.

3. Respect – individuals’ approaches to problems and personal strengths vary; the Roundtable welcomes businesspeople of all types in a non-critical manner. Members should be respectful at all times, including in their feedback to others and in not monopolizing conversation. Committee chair / facilitator may limit or cut off long discussions.

4. Openness – the group will provide the most value if members are able to bring vulnerability and honesty to the discussions. A fellow member facing business and personal challenges may benefit from hearing about difficult challenges you have faced in the past.
