Telling YOUR Stories of Work Birthed by JTM

[MFerrier]

Hi folks,
We need your help in telling your stories! Just spent an incredible
two days with the rest of the JTM board and I am so honored to be part
of the JTM that is emerging from those conversations! Your generosity
in responding to questions on the listserv and in your willingness to
be interviewed helped to deepen and enrich our perspectives of the
value of JTM to you and your work. We'll be sharing more on what
emerged from these conversations soon.

My task --my privilege -- is to help make visible the great work that
was birthed by you from your JTM engagement. We'd like to move forward
with nurturing projects/actions/collaborations in the 1,200-strong JTM
network. We'd like to invite you to help us in heralding the work you
do and the value of that work to your communities. To that end, we'd
love your ideas on how to make this network of great projects and
people more visible.

What would YOU like to know about what others are doing? Some
potential questions are offered below. Please comment on other ways we
might better champion your work by adding questions, technologies or
other ways we can best highlight your work.

Sample Questions

1. What project, vision, relationship or collaboration was birthed for
you from your associations with JTM?
2. What was the key factor that JTM brought to the table in making
that happen for you?
3. Where are you now in the project and what do you need? Or what are
your next steps?
4. What skills/talents/gifts do you bring to the JTM network that
might allow others to advance new insights, projects or
collaborations?
5. What skills or knowledge would better equip you to do what you are
doing better? Faster? Deeper? With more heart?
6. What might we deploy to better highlight best practices and the
value of your work?

What other questions should we be asking of each other? How might we
facilitate making our work visible?

Your thoughts please?
