Questions for Get Out and Give Backget-out-and-give-back-questions.doc
I’m looking for people to be nominated as a possible person to be profiled on the “Get Out and Give Back” television show. (If you are unfamiliar with this show, you can view the demo here):

This show has been accepted by American Public Television (APT) for national distribution on public television once underwriting is secured (see attachment). That means that this show has not yet been funded, and although I am aggressively pursuing underwriters, I cannot guarantee when it will happen.
Having said that, the Get Out and Give Back business includes the television show, as well as my public speaking, writing and coaching, all in service of inspiring people to contribute and give back. To encourage people and organizations to contribute, I’m asking each of you for your permission to tell your stories in my speaking, writing, potential book-writing, and television show. (“Writing” means any non-book writing, such as magazine articles, the Get Out and Give Back blog, etc.). I will not use your name in any of my coaching work. The attached questionnaire include an agreement that I’m asking you to initial and sign, that basically says you’re OK with all of this. Would you please complete the questions in the attachment then scan/email it back to me?
The unique focus of Get Out and Give Back is that it focuses on the change made within the individual who has found his/her contribution, rather than the contribution itself. I believe this perspective has been under-emphasized and the “what I get out of giving” viewpoint can create a desire in people to more actively seek out and want to contribute. Your stories of how finding your unique contribution, and how it matches who you are (if it does), will certainly inspire others to look within themselves and seek out the kinds of contribution that feels most authentic to them.
If you have any questions at all, please contact me at jane@getoutandgiveback.com. And please feel free to forward this email on to anyone else you know who has profoundly changed after finding their way to contribute, and invite them to participate!
I wish each of you a very happy holiday, full of cheer and love.
Jane
