Our platform doesn’t replace a coach…it works directly with one.
Platforms have become a popular addition to learning and development. But what do they really offer? Different things from different vendors. Some use platforms to give you access to coaching and topic choices. Others use platforms to standardize coaching and measure impact. And still others are trying to introduce technology as the alternative coach.
Technology may find a way to guide skill development on many topics, but it’s very limited as a communication coach. And the key reason is that it’s focused on assessing habits in a speaker – the number of um’s, the pace of speech, eye movement, etc. But it can’t adjust the habits, and it leaves out the most essential ingredient of effective communication…the listener.
Communication is about influence and impact and less about preset patterns of voice modulation. In fact, when coaching focuses only on patterns for a communicator, you’re working against a cookie cutter method rather than someone’s unique skills and strengths.
There’s a better way, and it’s why we designed our platform to work with a coach to bring awareness, intention and practice together for results.
Every SW&A participant has access to SWAU, our practice platform, with guided coaching tracks, practice steps, and added insights pulled from more than 30+ years of custom programs, articles and thought leadership. We host live events and discussion regularly with the coaching team, all designed to keep communication top of mind across our engagements. And better yet, we can tailor a track specific to your group to keep them together as a cohort during their experience with us.
So, as you plan for your development needs, add SWAU to your thinking.
It’s the best way to leverage a platform – working with a coach, instead of replacing one.
