In 2006, I began researching coaching news stories for The Chronicle of Coaching, a weekly global news roundup offered on the (now retired) Foundation of Coaching website.
Back then, it was a challenge to find credible news stories about professional coaching.
In 2009, when The Foundation of Coaching transitioned to The Institute of Coaching at McLean Hospital, a Harvard Medical School Affiliate, news and feature stories about coaching were not only easy to find – combing through the daily feeds became time consuming, tedious – AND very exciting.
When The Chronicle of Coaching was archived and the Coaching Commons took over reporting the news to our readers, a new challenge was born - there were SO MANY coaching stories, that reporting only once each week created a long and exhausting document for our readers to view.
Coaching News – Present
We updated the reporting format and the Commons now gathers and prints the latest global coaching news every day – 7 days a week.
Also in 2009, the Coaching Commons hired its own Coach Reporter, the first journalist to exclusively cover the “coaching beat,” writing original news and feature stories for the Coaching Commons audience.
And we appreciate our many readers, coaches and researchers who have volunteered their coaching blogs and stories to the Coaching Commons as guest contributors. (Applause to Vikki Brock, who volunteers snapshots of Coaching History each week.)
New News
The thrilling next step is an invitation to our community of coaches/writers (and to freelance journalists and reporters) to pitch stories to our Editorial Team, and if the story is accepted, write for the Coaching Commons and get paid!
We want to expand our international coverage of the coaching profession, and offer our readers the latest ideas and commentary about executive coaching, business coaching, leadership coaching, life coaching -and specialty coaching niches that are fresh and timely.
- Are you attending a major coaching conference that you would be willing to critique and/or review?
- Are you doing coaching research that would benefit Coaching Commons readers?
- Do you want to start a provocative conversation that coaches would be eager (and passionate) to discuss?
Join us in creating the next level of the Coaching Commons – expanding international coaching news that will advance coaching to the next stage of growth.
