Recent advances in coaching technology enhanced its accessibility and affordability for a broader population. In the imposing growth of economy and the demand for extensive coaching intervention for executives, artificialintelligence (AI)-based coaching is one of the possible solutions. While the evidence of AI coachingeffectiveness is expanding, a comprehensive understanding of the field remains elusive. In particular, the true potential of AI coaching tools, ethical considerations and their current functionality are subjects of ongoing investigation.
I feel extremely happy to share with you my friends that my second academicpaper – “Unearthing AI coaching chatbots capabilities for professional coaching: a systematic literature review” has been published with Emerald Publishing in the Journal of Management Development this week.
The review shows that AI coaching chatbots and tools are effective for narrow tasks such as goalattainment, support for various psychological conditions and induction of reflection processes. Whereas, deep long-term coaching, workingalliance and individualized approach are out of current AI coaching competence. AI coaching tools serve as complementary helping tools that cannot replace human coaching. However, they have the potential to enhance the coach’s performance and serve as valuable assistants in intricate coaching interventions.
