Coaching is now accessible at every level of an organisation, transforming how employees learn, grow and develop. However, this shift also raises important questions:

To uncover these very important questions, in this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Anna Tavis, researcher, global educator, coach, and Chair of the Human Capital Management Department at New York University.  

Together, David and Anna discuss:

• Key considerations for HR leaders implementing AI coaching tools 
• Common challenges in adoption and how to navigate them 
• The impact of AI coaching on employee feedback and workforce insights
