COACHBOTING, A PARADIGM SHIFT
Coachboting is a personalized transformational coaching approach, grounded in the best behavioral coaching methods – recognized for delivering real and lasting change.
Designed to be deployed at scale, with a consistent quality of experience and deliverables, it is fully piloted through a KPI-driven dashboard.
It addresses a fundamental and structurally unmet need in existing solutions: developing behavioral skills across leadership teams and employees – at scale – despite strong constraints on budget and timelines.
To drive tangible impact: faster and better decisions, reduced tensions, smoother collaboration, and stronger operational performance.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Objective | behavior change | behavior change | awareness, paradigm shift, alignment | awareness, paradigm shift, alignment | knowledge transfer, methods, best practices |
| Methodological foundation | a unique and optimized combination of behavioral coaching methods proven for their impact | variable, not always explicit | variable (specific to each coach) | variable (coach-dependent); content used as support | pedagogy known in advance (content, exercises, in-session experimentation) |
| Questions | questions designed upfront by humans, identical for all participants | questions generated live by the AI (probabilistic generation) | asked by the human coach; quality highly dependent on the coach | mostly asked by the coach during sessions (quality highly dependent on the coach) | trainer and/or group-driven; little or no individualization |
| Progression logic | sequential and global, orchestrated through workflows (data-flow automation) | contextual, local | adaptive, dependent on the coach’s framework and working alliance; little standardization | coach-dependent; little standardization; content pathways as support | by session or module |
| Anchoring in daily work | strong | strong | strong | strong | weak |
| Checkpoints | explicit, verified, non-negotiable | vague, implicit, bypassable | variable: possible milestones, rarely verified systematically | variable (coach-defined); content sometimes structuring but secondary | possible during sessions (quizzes, assessments) |
| Handling resistance to change | strong (method, sequential logic) | variable | strong in 1:1 | strong in 1:1 | weak |
| Method compliance | structurally guaranteed by the architecture (workflow + system state): skipping a step is impossible | not guaranteed | depends on the coach (rigor) and the contract; may drift over time | largely dependent on coaches; the platform standardizes content more than practice | good pedagogical consistency |
| Resistance to user avoidance | very strong | weak | variable | variable | weak: one can listen, agree, and then change nothing |
| Role of AI | strictly limited to response analysis | central: it dialogues, questions, reformulates, and may influence the next steps | optional: possibly used as an analysis or note-taking tool, not core to the system | sometimes used to recommend content or assist the coach; rarely central | optional: content support, Q&A, quizzes… |
| Journey traceability | complete (step, sequence, timestamp) | limited to conversations (confidential); no structured, verifiable, scalable journey traceability | low (confidential coach/coachee notes); rarely usable at scale | low (confidential notes); good tracking of content usage | good during sessions (attendance, participation, scores, completion…) |

| HR steering | native (cohort tracking: progress, engagement, key indicators, checkpoints) | generally impossible without sacrificing conversation confidentiality | difficult | possible via dashboards (coaching session delivery, content usage) | native |
| Impact measurement | native execution metrics: progress, engagement, key indicators, checkpoints | possible but unstructured: self-reported, usage-dependent | limited: mostly ad hoc feedback/360, little structured data | limited for coaching; stronger on content usage data | strong attendance/test metrics; on-the-job transfer rarely measured |

| Conclusion | the only scalable and steerable behavioral transformation system | useful for quick exploration, but unable to guarantee a method and checkpoints over time | excellent for awareness at the level of a given coach (vs behavioral transformation), but non-industrializable and costly at scale | a hybrid model that is not structurally transformative and heavily constrained by coach availability when scaling | knowing what to do and how is not enough to actually do differently |
Business Case – With Coachbot Systems, NEOMA Executive Education becomes the first European player to integrate coachboting into its ExecEd programs.
