  • 10: Technology in Coaching
    Dec 1 2024

    In this last episode for Series 3, Dr Natalie Lancer and our panel of experts, Sam Isaacson, Professor Nicky Terblanche, and Alex Haitoglou, delve into the intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and coaching psychology. They discuss the critical need for coaches to understand technology, the nascent research on AI in coaching, and the rapid advancements in AI. We explore AI's capabilities in coaching as well as potential benefits, concerns and ethical issues. We discuss the importance of coaches adapting to technological changes while maintaining the uniquely human aspects of their practice.

    We consider:

    • What is the impact of technology, specifically AI, on coaching psychology?
    • How is human interaction affected by AI?
    • How important is it for coaches to keep up-to-date with AI and technology?
    • Which are the technologies currently shaping the coaching industry?
    • What is the current state of research on AI and coaching?
    • How can coaches balance the use of technology and AI in their practice?
    • How can AI be appropriately integrated into coaching practices?
    • What are the risks, challenges and benefits of integrating AI and technology with coaching?
    • What are some of the ethical considerations around the use of AI in coaching, on which coaches may wish to reflect?
    • What are the needs and challenges for regulation of AI in coaching?

    Our experts also considered future trends, including conversational AI and immersive technologies. We know that these AI and technological tools will play a significant role in delivering coaching at scale and enhancing remote coaching experiences. Therefore, adapting to technology is not optional; it is essential for effective coaching. There is a need for more research to fully understand how AI can serve as a beneficial tool for coaches and their clients.
