Annual Awards
We are keen to encourage, support and recognise work across our field. The Annual Awards are an opportunity to identify ground-breaking coaching research and writing, as well as outstanding contributions to the field.
The Annual Awards are divided into three categories and are open to nominations between January and September each year.
Individuals, publishers and researchers may nominate others' work, although current Coaching Centre associates, employees and others linked to Henley are excluded. Nominations should include a published version of the book or article. Books and articles must have been published in the last 12 months.
The Henley team will review nominations and make a selection based on what they consider to be outstanding work in each category.
Nominations for 2024 will open in the new year.
