Change Starts With Self-Awareness

SPEAKER_00 0:00

I think one of the most challenging things that we all go through in the workplace is change. And when you think about Tasha Yurik's work in her New York Times bestseller, Insights, she literally talks about 85% of people significantly lacking self-awareness. Now, I bring up that statistic all the time because it blows me away. And it really shows where we're at as an organization. And I was just talking to someone the other day and they were talking about a situation, and someone said, Oh, I know how you feel. And all of a sudden, my friend looked back at this person and said, Wait a minute. No, you don't. You've never done this. How could you know how I feel? And the person goes, Oh, yeah. See, we have very triggered rhetorical reactions, such as, How are you doing today? Good. Got big plans this weekend? No, just hanging around the house. We have these very triggered conversations. See, what a skilled coach can do is to get someone to look in the mirror to address that 85% number. And then to get them to feel really good about

looking in the mirror and then taking action on it. So let's take artificial intelligence and let's take that notion and let's talk about what is that challenge that AI can help us with, but also potentially not solve. So let's think about this just for a second. Let's think about this for just a second. The fact of the matter is, is if somebody is going

to be coached and they have a negative attitude, they're not going to go to an AI tool and say, boss, do you have an AI tool? I got a negative attitude. That's where the 85% number comes into

play. See, if someone's lacking self-awareness, no matter the resource of where the coaching is going to be facilitated from, it's still incumbent upon the human being to say, you know what, I got to look in the mirror. So then we have to ask ourselves: what's the combination of AI and what's the combination of a human-based coach? How can they work together? Those opportunities are going to exist. Don't get me wrong. So the fact of the matter is we have a very unique challenge ahead of us. And the unique challenge ahead of us is we have to think about some of the things that we need to be able to do. And one of the things that we have to do is be in a position to grow our business, grow our teams, grow our awareness

Blending AI With Human Coaching

SPEAKER_00 2:32

of what we need to do to improve. And that conjures up this thing called change. Now, I always share this. People change in three directions. And it's pretty simple. Stage one effort, stage two, progress, stage three, continuous predictable results. Humans make this mistake. AI won't even see this. Does AI even see effort? Do they see the emotion of effort? And then can they pinpoint the progress when it's back at the job? So when you think about somebody like a teller at a credit union or a bank going and applying the coaching and being more engaged and asking better questions of members or customers, will the AI agent

Effort Progress Results And Motivation

be able to pinpoint that progress? Why do I say that? Because 76% of people are at their most motivated state when they're progressing. We won't typically point out someone's progress solely in coaching conversations. It'll happen back at the job. That's why continuous coaching, along with spot coaching, as we call it, observational coaching, what that does is it conjures up the opportunity for human-based coaching. Here's the other thing to think about. You know, I just talked to a leader who said, Well, you know, we're looking at some AI tools. That'll really save us time. And I remember the VP of HR said, What did you think about that response? And I go, you know, I get it, but it's a little oxymoronic. And she said, What do you mean? I said, Well, for years, what have we heard? You don't have time to coach. They're using the same type of response. And she said, Yeah. And I go, Doesn't AI save them time so they could reinvest in their people? And all of a sudden she said, Oh my gosh, you're right. I go, I'm it's not about being right. It's it's a

perspective. We still have the neat same triggered rhetorical reactions. I'm busy. But don't we have more time savings with some of the tools coming out? What are your thoughts?
