Jill’s exists because leadership can be a lonely road. This community works only when every member feels safe enough to take off the mask.

This Code of Conduct is how we protect that safety for each other.

​

Discretion Is Absolute

What is shared at Jill’s — stories, struggles, strategies, names — stays at Jill’s. This applies in every setting: Accountability Circles, the C-Suite Bar, events, and any one-on-one connections formed here. Confidentiality is not a guideline; it is the foundation this community is built on. Breaching it is grounds for immediate removal. All Accountability Circle members sign an NDA annually. 

​

Peer Support, Not Advice

Our Accountability Circles are spaces for honest reflection and specific, actionable feedback, not unsolicited coaching. Unless a fellow member explicitly asks for your recommendation, lead with questions. The most valuable thing you can offer is often your attention, not your answer.

 

Honesty Over Optics

Report your progress truthfully,  including, and probably most importantly,  setbacks. This community only functions when members tell the truth about where they actually are. There is no judgment here for falling short; there is harm in performing success you haven’t had.

 

Equal Voice, Equal Space

No member’s goals, industry, or title carry more weight in this room than another’s. Be as invested in listening as you are in being heard and if you notice someone hasn’t had space to speak, help create it.

​

Respect for Time

Arriving prepared and on time is an act of respect for every person in the room. When life happens, communicate in advance.  Be sure to come with your honest update, your questions, and your focus.

 

Feedback With Care

When offering feedback, speak to what was asked and do so constructively. It is important that we challenge ideas, but not character. The goal is to help each other move forward,  not to demonstrate your own expertise.

 

Conflict Resolution

If a concern arises between members, address it directly and privately first. If resolution isn’t reached, bring it to Jill. Public confrontations during sessions are not consistent with our values.

 

Membership Is a Commitment

Joining an Accountability Circle means committing to the group,  not just attending when convenient. Consistent presence and follow-through on commitments are what make this community worth belonging to.

 

Membership in an Accountability Circle is a privilege and a responsibility. By joining, you agree to uphold this Code of Conduct as a condition of your continued participation.
