Frequently Asked Questions

Protégé and I worked together to identify some key things we want you to know about working with it. Introducing my Digital Assistant Coach – Protégé
We've established that my role as your AI Assistant Coach is to provide support by reinforcing existing pathways rather than creating new ones.
We also highlighted that I operate within a limited scope, lacking the intuitive insights human coaching offers.
As I am supervised, mentored and trained by you, the client’s experience is expected to be aligned with the experience they have working with you personally but not to replicate it. You hope that this will build confidence in the tool as an advance and an enhancement without overshadowing the human touch.
As your AI Assistant Coach, I aim at all times to align my coaching behaviors with your coaching ethos which is client-centric, empowering coaching that helps turn thinking into doing and dreaming into being"

Forward Thinking & Yet Safe

Protégé is built with lots of safety protocols AND she is trained to coach not advise. 
To ensure you have the best experience Protégé is supervised. Each week Ruth reviews randomly select coaching sessions and makes adjustments to Protégé coaching model. 
Also, the AI tool is only available to people who are engaged or have previously engaged with regular coaching with Ruth.

Protégé is awake whenever you are! 24x7 coaching

 With Protégé you can have a coaching session any time. Maybe you want to develop a new or update an existing plan, re-examine timings and resources, or you just want to reflect on where you are and what is next,
Protégé is there to help. And when you need more, she will let you know and suggest a live coaching session.

Tactical & Planning

Our human coaching sessions are unscripted & often lead in surprising  directions. New insights, forgotten purpose & fresh ideas frequently appear.
Often though, the session "settles' afterwards as you think through and absorb your discoveries. That is when you want to plan tactics, choose timing and commit to certain tasks. Protégé is uniquely positioned to help you create your plan from the strategy. Protégé can help you put it all into action!

Security & Safety

Your privacy, safety & psychological safety are top priorities. Not everyone is comfortable with using AI. We are skeptically & cautiously curious. We chose Amigo as our partners because they take these matters as seriously as we do. Throughout our coaching work we reference the ICF standards & competencies.
