BetterUp Recent Developments
In November 2023, BetterUp launched BetterUp Manage. This new offering is an AI-powered solution tailored for businesses, aiming to enhance manager development, foster high-performing teams, and unlock performance at scale. BetterUp Manage integrates science-backed learning experiences with human connection to provide a comprehensive solution for organizational growth and success. In April 2020 BetterUp launched BetterUp Live, a weekly, live web series featuring best-selling authors, Olympians, psychologists, and entertainers to foster connection, learning, and resilience amid the COVID-19 crisis.
In March 2020 BetterUp introduced two new product innovations - Identify AI and Coaching Clouds - to help organizations deliver more effective, hyper-personalized coaching at scale to any employee at any level in the organization. BetterUp’s new Identify AI is a proprietary AI that delivers hyper-personalized development recipes based on organizational priorities and individual preferences. Identify AI starts by understanding the strategic priorities of a company. It then accurately and efficiently diagnose the growth and development needs of an organization’s entire employee population by understanding where each person is in their career, their mindsets and behaviors, learning preferences, and their readiness for coaching. Powered by these insights, Identify AI helps organizations determine who the right people are to invest in, and the appropriate dosage and type of coaching needed to best meet their needs. By leveraging integrations with HCM data, Identify AI also precisely locates and flags “peak” coaching opportunities in real-time and delivers customized content and goal setting tools at the right moment, such as when an employee is taking on a big change initiative, when someone is transitioning roles and has increased scope of responsibility, or when a person is moving locations to a new country.
In early 2019, BetterUp launched three new products; Extended Network, extending the coaching bench to a robust, rounded entourage of specialists ready to address issues such as sleep, nutrition, effective communication, peak performance, sales success; On-demand Coaching, coaching available within one hour, 24/7, and BetterUp 360, high-impact awareness-building tool leveraging self-assessment and peer evaluation.
