CMADI is looking for some additional volunteers, and we want you! Here the opportunities we currently have available for volunteers:

Coaches’ PR Toolkit

When you join one of our toolkit teams, you’ll have the chance to connect with coaches all over the world to find out their best practices and resources for PR, collect samples of what they have been doing, and use your own brainpower and creativity to put it all together into a kit to share with coaches everywhere. This will be a fun, collegial, and educational project. Volunteers from outside North America are welcome! Here are the teams currently looking for new members:

Media Relations Team: Responsible for gathering and creating tools such as press releases, media tips, talking points about coaching, and links to PR resources. This team is chaired by Carla Schnitker, with vice chair Aprille Janes, and steering committee liaison David Stocum. Also on the team is Angelique Miralles. We need 1 more volunteer.

Marketing Communications Team: Responsible for gathering or creating tools such as flyers for (or descriptions of) coaching PR events, brochures about hiring a coach, and promotional copy about coaching. Currently on this team are Feroshia Knight and Pam Duffy, we need 1 to 3 more volunteers.

Research & Evidence Team: Responsible for gathering or creating tools such as case studies, research, and statistics about coaching effectiveness, and articles about coaching. Currently on this team is Ron Sloan, we need 2 to 4 more volunteers.

Communications Coordinator

We need one volunteer to receive email sent to CMADI, and reply or forward it to the appropriate team member, and also moderate the CMADI Yahoo discussion list. The average time commitment would be one hour or less per week, and the only requirements are that you pick up your own email at least once per day Monday-Friday (except during planned absences) and be fluent in English.

To volunteer for any of these opportunities, email us.
