Poised - Real-time Coaching to Improve Communication in Organizations

Poised provides a data-driven approach to enhance speaking and presentation skills. The platform analyzes speech patterns, tone, and conversational structure to deliver immediate, actionable guidance. The outcome is shorter onboarding for leaders, more efficient meetings, and clearer, trackable coaching outcomes for HR teams.

What problems does Poised address?

Common HR challenges include inconsistent communication, inefficient meetings, and lack of measurable coaching results. Poised tackles these by offering automated analysis and standardized metrics. Instead of relying on subjective impressions, teams gain objective indicators for speaking time, pace, interruptions, and filler words. This makes it possible to identify concrete development areas and to monitor progress over time.

Integration with standard meeting tools allows quick adoption within existing workflows. That reduces administrative overhead for HR and makes coaching initiatives more scalable. In practice, this leads to more reliable internal training and measurable improvements in meeting quality.

Pros and cons

Pros: real-time feedback, defined metrics, straightforward integration with meeting infrastructure, and a focused foundation for individual (Coaching). Cons: automated analysis simplifies complex human communication; cultural nuances and industry-specific language patterns still require human interpretation. Effectiveness also depends on employee buy-in.

Example: An HR group uses Poised to give leaders targeted feedback on speaking shares during meetings. Within months, average meeting lengths fall as facilitation habits change. Poised supplies a data-rich basis for improvement while preserving the role of human coaches. For HR professionals and executives seeking process simplification, the solution offers a structured, evidence-based route to better communication and scalable (Coaching).
