Stan -- Here is a very simple outline for your proposal: * Background (what brings the organization to this current place - a summary of the history) * Assessment (what's happening right now - describe the current situation and needs as you understand them) * Recommendation (describe the intervention you suggest - including project summary, outline, timeline, modalities and methods, outcomes and measurements, follow-up, etc.) * Fees (including payment schedule) * Biography (remind them why you are qualified to fulfill their need - your background and experience) This should be accompanied by a cover letter that invites a dialogue, and ideally you would present the proposal in-person. This gives an opportunity to confirm your shared understanding of the situation, the needs, and the intervention along the way.

-----Original Message----- From: OSLIST [mailto:osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu] On Behalf Of Stanley De Veaux Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2004 9:56 PM To: osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu Subject: A Training Project for Mentoring and Coaching Skills for Managers Hello Everyone: Over the last several years, I have been an avid reader of this list, and very grateful for the sharing of extraordinarily generous information. I have gotten an education sitting on the sidelines in silence. Now I have a question for the whole OS Listserv, and I have been told not to be shy! A local agency has asked me to submit a proposal for a project designed to develop mentoring and coaching skills for managers. I have done some facilitating but have not written a proposal. Do you have any advice both on curriculum and how to write the proposal? Does anyone have a template for a writing a proposal? Any help will be very appreciated. One last thing, I am in a real hurry with a deadline. Thanks, Stan * * ========================================================== osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist * * ========================================================== osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist
