Artificial intelligence expert Kai Fu Lee famously said that AI was likely to \u2018automate and eliminate\u2019 about 40 percent of jobs within 15 years. But what didn\u2019t get so much press was that Lee went on to talk about what would enable employees to survive and thrive in the new age of AI.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

AI can take on most jobs that require hard data logging, processing, and crunching. In fact, AI will not just automate repetitive tasks but may also replace \u2018white collar\u2019 jobs in finance, accounting, marketing, healthcare and other areas. <\/span><\/p>\n

But, at worxogo, we believe that AI delivers the most transformational outcomes when applied to complement human capabilities rather than replace them altogether<\/a>. And that\u2019s because there\u2019s so much more to human intelligence than just computing power. <\/span><\/p>\n

Human intelligence comprises the power to feel, to imagine, to empathize, to inspire. It is these uniquely human elements that will define our success in the age of AI. And it is precisely these elements that every employee brings to work each day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Using AI to enhance employee performance and engagement is what will give new-age organizations their competitive edge. worxogo nudge coach has helped build effective, dynamic high-performance teams (and managers) that are accomplishing more than before, making both the employees and their organizations more successful than before.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are three ways that our AI engine is enhancing employees and their managers at work:<\/span><\/p>\n

Individual Coaching For Employees<\/span><\/h2>\n

AI can transform workplaces by supporting the capabilities of employees. Imagine if every individual in a team could get a personal performance coach. AI can make this a reality, especially for large teams and organizations of scale.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2017, Deloitte showcased Titan\u2019s use of worxogo\u2019s AI-based personal digital coach in a report on <\/span>Disruptions in Retail through Digital Transformation<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0 Using behavior nudges based on individual employee performances, the nudge coach sent \u2018clear call-to-action insights\u2019. Titan saw 75% of their sales teams hit their targets along with a 20% increase in focus-product sales. In fact, the nudge coach was able to increase sales performance in double digits and reduce month-end skews – a challenge common to most sales teams – yielding a steady sales trend throughout the month.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the reasons this coaching is so effective is because it is hyper-personalized. Using machine learning, the AI engine understands each person\u2019s unique motivators and workplace persona in order to deliver personalized coaching insights. Most people may be unaware of their own drivers but respond well to coaching insights (behavior <\/span>nudges<\/span><\/a>) that are framed using their unique communication style, values, and disposition. The AI engine actually helps employees connect with their motivations and thereby boost their performance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Helping Managers Become Better<\/span><\/h2>\n

Political and military leaders over the centuries have inspired action, even at the risk of death, by using empathy along with their other leadership capabilities in order to be effective. Leadership in business should be no different but studies show otherwise. In one <\/span>survey<\/span><\/a> 91% of respondents said that their managers were ineffective communicators \u2013 with the underlying cause being a lack of emotional intelligence. One <\/span>study<\/span><\/a> found that only 40% of frontline leaders were strong in empathy. The research presented compelling data that empathy (the ability to understand and share the feelings of another) is a \u201ccritical driver of overall performance for management.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Frontline leaders and management are often buried under their work and don\u2019t find time to be empathetic. <\/span>AI can help managers unlock their time by taking away mundane tasks and focusing their energies on coaching their teams<\/span><\/p>\n

worxogo nudge coach has helped managers mentor and manage their teams better by analyzing team and individual performances. The AI engine coaches managers, showing them who in the team needs attention\/intervention as well as how and when to intervene for maximum effectiveness. This enables the manager to give team members individual attention even in large teams. With one click, a manager is instantly able to reach out to the individuals on his team with an appreciative note or a helpful suggestion. This not only increases their effectiveness as a manager, but also creates an encouraging atmosphere that builds engagement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The analysis of team performance also helps managers spot trend and identify future leaders.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overcoming Human Cognitive Limitations<\/span><\/h2>\n

AI can help us to maximise our potential by mitigating human cognitive weaknesses. Behavior Science studies show us how our <\/span>inbuilt biases and behavior patterns<\/span><\/a> sometimes trip us up \u2013 making us operate from a default mode or make decisions based on our feelings. People are prone to do what they\u2019ve always done. Employees find it hard to change their automatic responses and conditioned behavior even when their performance is clearly being affected.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A great example of this is the common trend in sales teams to start working towards targets only as the end of the month draws near. worxogo nudge coach has helped employees overcome this by breaking down a faraway deadline into smaller, more achievable targets and milestones. Reps are gently nudged to get started early. The results are dramatic as most sales reps end up exceeding their targets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/span><\/h2>\n

AI is at the forefront in the search of solutions for climate change, disaster relief, food shortages and other global issues. We believe that collaborating with AI will bring the game-changing solutions that businesses need to thrive today. There\u2019s more to AI than just replacing employees with automatons. In fact, the real power of AI is in using it to augment human intelligence. Making employees more effective and productive – a principle we\u2019re applying to build high-performing teams.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
