September 2009 (V7N3) - Neuro Science
Most coaches know how coaching works, but few know how or why. Scientists
studying attention, insight, how we know ourselves, emotional regulation
and other fields are beginning to illustrate the reasons change is so
hard, and exactly how coaches help. By understanding the functioning that
drives effective coaching we can better understand what coaching does, and
improve the impact of coaching techniques.

psychological traits, rather than improving or correcting any negative
flaws. How is this new discipline similar to professional coaching? What
can we learn from Positive Psychology, and how can we apply it to enhance
our work? Dive into this exciting topic with us.

How To Get Your Article Published in choice Magazine
Have you ever wondered how we choose which articles to publish in a
particular issue of choice?
Are you frustrated because your submitted article(s) have not been chosen
for publication?
First, we should explain that we receive 20 to 30 submissions for
consideration in each issue of choice. We thoroughly read, discuss and
consider every single one, and the final selections are based on the
following criteria:
- Is the article written to the level and quality we and our readers
expect from choice?
- Does the article adequately address the chosen theme of the issue,
or alternatively, does the article fit the editorial direction of one
of our columns (impact, perspective, etc.)?
- Is the article free of self-promotion?
- Is the article objective? (i.e. free of personal opinion, judgment,
and criticism based on opinion rather than fact.)
- Is the article focused on application and learning, as opposed to
dry theory?
- Is the article different enough from the other articles submitted?
(In a case where we receive two similar articles, we first look at
which one is better, and all things being equal, we will usually choose
the article from the more recognized expert in the field being
discussed).
- If the article is in interview format, does the person being
interviewed have some recognized expertise in the particular field
being discussed?
- Is there enough space to run the article?
Due to the volume of articles, we do not personally reply to every
submission. However, we WILL notify you if we choose your article for
publication. Articles that cannot be published in one issue due to space
or theme considerations will be kept on file for possible publication in a
future issue of choice.

Individuals desiring to contribute to choice Magazine should not hesitate
to make inquiries even if they are unfamiliar with procedures for writing
and submitting articles. Our goal is to provide relevant, high-quality
information from diverse sources; to write and publish with absolute
integrity; and to serve as effectively as possible the needs of the
individual involved in the coaching profession. If you have information or
articles that would help us achieve these goals, we would like to hear
from you.
