Contribute to the IMA Newsletter

We welcome your submissions for the IMA Newsletter! The newsletter is published monthly and is sent to our broad global mentoring community (IMA members and non-members).

The monthly newsletter is great for short-form pieces related to mentoring, including new articles or reflections, book or podcast announcements, quick mentoring tips, tools, research highlights, or updates relevant to the mentoring field.

Submissions are due by the 10th of each month, as newsletters are distributed toward the end of the month. Contributions should be approximately 200–300 words. If you are submitting an article, standard practice is to include a brief summary in the newsletter with a link to the full article. Please be sure to provide any relevant links with your submission.
