Guideline for agreement with client-in-coaching to use Wundamental session AI analysis for their benefit.
To ensure transparency, consent, and trust while using Wundamental to enhance the coaching results of your clients, always ask consent to record and analyse sessions with you and your clients for growth insights. Here are some tips and a written consent communication template to help you do it with ease.
For Coaches with New Clients
1. Incorporating AI Analysis into the Coaching Agreement: When drafting the initial coaching agreement or contract, include a section dedicated to the use of AI analysis (see example below). Describe its purpose, benefits, and how it will be used to enhance the coaching process. Detail the procedures for recording, analyzing, and storing sessions, emphasizing the security measures and confidentiality protocols in place to protect their privacy.
2. Transparent Onboarding Process: During the new client onboarding session, openly discuss the role of AI analysis in your coaching approach. Explain how it contributes to a more personalized and effective coaching experience by providing deeper insights into their challenges and progress. Encourage questions and address any concerns they may have.
For Coaches with Existing Clients
1. Introduction of Enhanced Coaching Experience:Send a personal message to your clients-in-coaching or introduce the concept of incorporating AI analysis into your coaching sessions in your next session at the beginning of the session when mutual agreements are made about the flow of the session. Explain how this will deepen insights and helps to identify patterns that might not be evident in real-time conversations. That will increase the coachee’s value to be gained from your time together.
2. Seeking Informed Consent: Clearly explain the process, including how audio recordings will be used, stored, and protected. Assure them of the confidentiality and security measures in place to safeguard their personal information. Provide a consent form (see example below) that outlines the use of AI analysis, what it entails, and how their data will be handled. Make it clear that their participation is voluntary and that they have the right to opt out at any time without affecting their future coaching experience with you.
💡 General Tips for Both Scenarios: 💡
Emphasize Confidentiality and Security: Reassure clients about the stringent measures you and Wundamental.ai take to protect their data.
Highlight the Value: Clearly articulate how AI analysis will add value to their coaching experience.
Offer Examples: Where possible, provide anonymized examples of how AI analysis has led to breakthroughs or significant progress for other clients.
Maintain an Open Dialogue: Encourage clients to share their feelings and thoughts about the use of AI in their sessions, fostering an environment of trust and openness.
Incorporating these recommendations into your communication strategy can help you introduce AI analysis in a way that respects and enhances the coach-client relationship, ensuring both existing and new clients understand the benefits and consent to the process.
How Wundamental ensures the privacy of your clients’ data:
Data Usage: Session recordings will be used primarily for the purpose of generating session insights.
Data Access: The session insights will be sent to the coachee via their chosen e-mail address and the coachee can at any time request deletion of their data, by asking coach directly to delete all their session data at any point during or after their coaching relationship. Coach is responsible for completing the ask by deleting all the data related to the coachee on Wundamental platform and their own databases where the session recordings and insight reports have been stored.
Third-Party Access: No unauthorized third-party service providers will have access to the session recordings uploaded.
Legal Compliance: The coach and wundamental.ai will comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding data protection and privacy.
Below is a template for a universal consent form designed for coaches to obtain agreement from their clients for recording sessions, anonymizing recordings, and using them for AI analysis.
