mentoring and supervision for human coaches will still be viable at least in the next 5 years but I am concerned if these 2 aspects of reflective work of a coach will also be replaced by AI. In the mentoring space, I note that the use of tools such as Raenotes can pick up coaching competencies in an audio recording with about 60% accuracy. ChatGPT, Claude, etc. can engage in intellectual discussions on issues faced by a coach and provide almost similar support as a human mentor and supervisor.

coaching is useful to support and help coachee to meet their desired goals. Coaching should be seen as an essential component for professional development and training. Hope to leverage more on more Gen AI to develop more customise coaching for coachee.

…what if blockchain reinvented coaching credentials? Clients could review coaches and share the experience. Coaches in non-Western regions might benefit by showing their impact without needing traditional certifications.

as soon as a larger player in tech gives ai coaching bots sensors (to see and hear) we will see a dramatic shift in capabilities and adoption. A software/ hardware combination in your device camera linked to the “office suite” you use makes the feature standard and overcomes adoption decisions. Current limitations are due to trying ti force a text interface to do something that was never done by text.

AI will continue to develop rapidly and surpass human coaches in terms of coaching techniques in collaboration with human coaches. As a result, excellent coaching by AI coaches will become available at very low cost or even free of charge, and students, young people, people in conflict zones, and people living in poverty who have not been able to receive coaching, helping them carve out a richer life. AI coach will also support human coach to develop their unique strenghth.
