Most enterprise coaching models cap dedicated support at director-level roles, leaving broader manager tiers with static coursework rather than real-time guidance during critical decision-making moments. Balancing 1:1, peer group, and emerging AI coaching requires clear evidence of what modalities truly work—and where research remains thin.
In this hands-on, interactive session, leaders bring an active organizational challenge to test directly against a blended coaching model. Using their personal devices, participants work through real leadership scenarios with an AI thinking partner, debrief in peer groups, and evaluate outcomes alongside executive coaching experts.
Facilitated by Kyle Swanson, Jane Shlaes, and Thiago Oliveira, this experience equips talent leaders to determine where human judgment is non-negotiable and how to scale coaching reach across previously underserved leadership tiers.
What we heard
Coaching is scarce and AI advice is always on, so groups looked at what each does well. They sketched a hybrid portfolio and shared prompts that make AI push back instead of simply agreeing.
