S3: E8 Why Coaching May Be The Most Important Organizational Skill In The Future of Work

from Hope @Work · host WRKdefined Podcast Network

While AI is the topic of the hour, Jim Knittel believes that coaching has the potential to be the biggest differentiator in the success of organizations. As founder of Ascend Performance Group, Jim has spent decades deciphering the psychological signals that individuals and organizations need to pay attention to in order to develop high performing teams. And despite the promise of what AI will bring in the future, it will never be able to replicate the active listening, emotional intelligence, intuition and lived experience of human to human interaction. This is an engaging conversation you will not want to miss.
