Neha Gupta discusses the role of AI in coaching and the importance of soft skills in client relations.
This week, Kavitha is joined by Neha Gupta, CEO and founder of Breakthrough AI, which recently launched a practice-first coaching platform powered by role play scenarios with AI voice tools . Neha explains that part of her vision was to provide real-time quantitative and qualitative feedback on effective communication : particularly for individuals who may be highly technically s killed , but need targeted practice to improve the soft skills that win over clients. She and Kavitha discuss empathy as a cornerstone of client relations, the role of gamification for incentivizing user engagement and self-improvement, and why Neha feels it is imperative to "keep a human in the loop" when interacting with AI coaching tools . In particular, Neha emphasizes the importance of pushing back on the "quick fix" and "life hacks" culture that is rapidly developing around AI-human interac tions . Instead, she encourages Kavitha to see AI coaching tools as an opportunity for engaging in unique, targeted practice t o prepare employees to meet high-stakes scenarios with confidence and meaningful preparation.
