AI use spreads through people, not through memos
Two-thirds of managers say they field questions from their team about how to use AI tools at least once a week (McKinsey, Superagency in the Workplace, 2025; US sample). 58% of employees prefer to hear about the personal impact of change from their direct supervisor (Prosci, Best Practices in Change Management, 2023).
Developing Internal Coaches in the AI Era
A two-day workshop for HR business partners, learning and development specialists, talent managers and HR leaders. Participants practise the GROW and CLEAR coaching models on real workplace cases. They also design how internal coaching will work in their organisation. They become the first group of champions. HR then helps AI use spread across the organisation.
What we build

In teams with champions, hidden AI use goes down and open use goes up. We re-score to check.
