Legal Agreements: Integrating Your Values and Creating Consent with Autumn Witt Boyd

Most of us understand the concept of consent when it comes to bodily autonomy and permission. We know what it means to agree to or decline physical interaction.

But consent has implications in many areas of our lives and businesses, and it can become confusing to consider how a broader definition of consent impacts the actions we take in relationship to each other.

Autumn Witt Boyd joins guest host India Jackson for a discussion of how consent applies to legal agreements and contracts that we make in our businesses and how approaching your agreements through the lens of consent impacts your relationships with your clients for the better.

In this discussion:

How the cultural conversation about consent has increased and expanded Why getting informed consent for your agreements improves your client relationships Why it’s key to get consent and set expectations through values-forward community and group agreements  How to handle an agreement you didn’t consent to Where to begin auditing your contracts and agreements for values and consent
