Mention the metaverse, and the association with gaming is likely to be one of the first thoughts to spring to mind.

However, the virtual world, when facilitated by the use of artificial intelligence (AI), has the vast potential to shape the future of coaching and training, and help solve real HR problems in ways that organisations never thought possible, said Arthur Carmazzi, best-selling author and Founder of the Directive Communication Psychology.

He told HRM Asia, “Technology can help you augment your people development in the real world by applying metaverse strategies. For example, you may have some issues with training ROI. Do you ever notice how a lot of times you have these really great trainers, and they get number tens on their evaluation forms but ultimately, when it comes back to implementing what your people have learnt, they kind of get busy and a lot of the stuff doesn’t get implemented?”

“There are new solutions using technology that can help people to individually and in a personalised way, do on-the-job training of soft skills, where they would be able to develop their skills and succeed in advance before they try this in the real world.”

Carmazzi, who is also ranked as the world’s number one thought leader in organisational culture for 2022-23 by Global Gurus, added that this can be made possible through creating AI avatars of thought leaders, trainers, and coaches that organisations can mix and match to get the best solution.

The onboarding experience can also be enhanced through AI and the metaverse, where new hires can be taken on a journey of inspiration by the CEO to get them passionate and excited about being part of the organisation.

To get started on the journey of inspiration and discovery in the world of AI and metaverse, join Carmazzi at HR Tech Fest Connect 2023, where in his keynote address titled, AIs and the Metaverse at Work: Navigating the Future of Speaking, Coaching, and Training, where he will share the tech, the psychology, and the extreme potential of higher standards of people development in the workplace.

“We are going to be looking at the different ways that not only can you improve skills, but truly manage attitudes, expectations and ultimately, a sense of personal confidence and competence in being the best human being you can be at work,” Carmazzi added.
