Book Study Mastermind
The Book We Are Studying This Session:
The Speed of Trust
by Stephen M.R. Covey

What is a Book Study Mastermind?
Have you ever picked up a book with good intentions to read it through its entirety but then something comes up and it never gets read? Have you ever finished a book and asked yourself at the end, what did I really learn?
If you answered yes to either of these questions, then being a participant in our book study Mastermind may be the perfect place for you!
We choose from a list of timeless books that have created massive change in people’s lives. As a group, we draw out the most important principles from these writings and then work to implement them into our own lives.
Our Book Study Masterminds hold you accountable to get the reading done. And not only done, but read with intention and purpose. By slowing down, breaking the book into segments, reading and then studying the material segment by segment, the value of the book and the knowledge found within seep into your subconscious where it is really “learned”.
These Masterminds are a space to dive into a book with other like-minded individuals to gain the knowledge contained within. Together we study over a period of 6 months and as a group, we draw out the most important principles from these writings and then work to implement them into our own lives. Again, holding each other accountable at each meeting when we discuss our goals for the month.

Linda McLean, who has over 25 years’ experience in business leadership and team development facilitates a well-organized, proven Mastermind process that provides each participant the opportunity for conversation, of sharing ideas and ultimate growth from these monthly discussions.
Through repetition, new ideas and solutions are formed, which have helped many achieve the progress they have been desiring in their business.
Our interactive McLean Book Study Mastermind Groups have a maximum of 15 people which provides a safe and constructive place to encourage great dialogue from EVERYONE – no one does all of the talking!
What Benefits do participants get from the Mastermind?
We help guide you through the book, so you can implement actionable steps from the lessons learned.
Other benefits from joining our Mastermind include:
- Being a part of an exclusive community
- Synergy – working together to create greater benefits than working alone
- Expanded thinking – different ideas and opinion challenge you to broaden your thought processes
- Accountability to study and finish the book
- Shared knowledge and experiences from the group
- Inspiration and answers to current situations
- Brainstorming and problem solving
- Access to our private Book Study Mastermind Facebook Group for continued networking and sharing of ideas
“Learning with other like-minded business owners is the absolute best and most refreshing way to study a book"
I love the size of the group as we always have an opportunity to share and learn. The format is organized and everyone is able to have their time to contribute to the discussion.

The monthly Book Study Mastermind LIVE meetings provide ample time to read, apply and then report back the progress each person has made (accountability). If making progress is what you want, then this is the Book Study Mastermind that will help you do that.

How the Book Study Mastermind is delivered
- Highly interactive 60-minute Zoom video meetings once a month.
- Privately moderated Facebook group for dialogue, troubleshooting and support as you embrace and implement your learnings.
- Simple yet relevant homework assignments to complement the reading material, resource tools, forms, and other supplemental materials.
Over the period of the study time, you and your Mastermind peers will actively engage in supporting each other as you move forward in your business and personal lives utilizing the principles taught in the books.
And, if you need additional support, we offer a variety of coaching programs available for continued progress.
“Being part of the Mastermind Study Group was an excellent way to maximize the value of reading a classic text."
We had plenty of time to get the reading done between sessions, and were given thought provoking homework assignments to consider as we read. Sharing insights and hearing from the group during our monthly sessions added an extra depth to my understanding of the material. I highly recommend the Mastermind Study Group.

I have found that I receive so much more value from being in the McLean Book Club Mastermind Group than from reading the book on my own.
“When I hear other people’s perspectives and then we discuss it, I learn so much more. Also, I appreciate the interaction of everyone, and love that if I don’t feel like talking, I am not pressured to participate. I love the freedom of learning together with everyone.”
