Write for us

We welcome clear, original pitches about the craft of coaching conversations and the choices that help people listen, reflect and decide on a next step.

Topics we consider

Pitch a focused article about listening, questions, goals, reflection, coaching agreements or another subject closely connected to coaching practice. Strong ideas help a general reader understand a concept or consider a useful approach without relying on professional advice, invented case histories or claims of guaranteed results.

What to include

Use the Contact page to send your proposal. Explain the central idea, who it is for, what readers may take away and why the subject suits Open Coaching Journal. Include a short outline and note any sources or relevant experience you would draw on. Please send a proposal rather than a complete unsolicited article.

Editorial fit

We look for a distinct angle, plain English and careful treatment of uncertainty and boundaries. A pitch is not a promise of publication; we may suggest changes to scope, structure or wording.
