What you'll learn

How to use AI as a prep tool for high-stakes conversations

Not to generate a script, but to think through your message with a coaching partner.

How to identify your emotional state and intent first

Separate what you feel from what you need to say, so anxiety or frustration doesn't hijack the delivery.

How to apply the SBI framework for a 30-second statement

Structure any feedback using Situation, Behavior, Impact into a clear, precise message.

How to challenge your assumptions with AI-guided questions

Test whether your feedback is fair before delivering it, so you know it's about them, not your unmet needs.

How to pressure-test your message through role play

Flip perspective to hear it from the receiver's side, then do a dry run before the real conversation.

Why this topic matters

Most feedback fails not because the message was wrong, but because the person delivering it was anxious, frustrated, or unclear about their intent. That leaks into tone and word choice. In this session, you'll watch a live demo of an AI coach that helps you get clear on what you're feeling, what you want, and how your message will land — before you walk in.
