The Chief of Staff

The Chief of Staff is the professional journal of The Chief of Staff Association. It aims to share knowledge, skills, and ideas about one of the world’s most important but understudied professions ‒ one which, almost by definition, operates discreetly and ‘under the radar’.
In doing so, we equip chiefs of staff with the tools necessary to expand their knowledge and increase their effectiveness. The journal addresses practical, theoretical, and historical aspects of the profession, guiding the analysis of historical decisions and inspiring future leaders. As such, we are interested in submissions that present both contemporary ideas and classic insights.
We welcome contributions from Members and Fellows of The Chief of Staff Association and others who are interested in the topics that we explore. Each issue is based around a broad theme. May 2024 will focus on people and culture, while September 2024 will feature articles relating to the key relationship between principal and chief of staff. Please send proposals and pitches to:

The Chief of Staff Association

The Chief of Staff Association (CSA) is the international professional body for chiefs of staff in leading corporations, governments, the military and diplomatic corps. Our members have an impact when and where it matters through facilitated connections, curated forums and professional certification. The purpose of The Chief of Staff Association is to advance the influence of professional chiefs of staff and recognise the role of chiefs as connectors of global leaders.
Three pillars underpin The Chief of Staff Association: education, network, and advocacy.
