Rollout training with focus on AI as “augmentation, not automation”
To ensure the company fully realizes the benefits of AI Coaching, the technical rollout must be reinforced with human-centered enablers and continuous performance management:
Change Management & Adoption. Advisors need to clearly understand that AI augments - rather than replaces - their expertise A dedicated change program should highlight how coaching prompts, guided workflows, and benchmarks enhance their daily practice, supported by training in pilot markets before global scale-up
Continuous KPI Tracking & Feedback Loops. Real-time dashboards tracking NPS, upsell %, FCR, and advisor productivity will make progress visible to managers and advisors alike Regular coaching reviews based on these insights will ensure performance gaps are addressed quickly and that top-performer behaviors spread across the organization
Advisor Empowerment & Best Practices Salesforce Knowledge and curated playbooks should capture specific best practices, embedding AI-driven recommendations into human-centered rituals Success stories - such as APAC concierge-style outreach or EMEA heritage storytellingcan be shared to inspire confidence and accelerate adoption globally Governance & Evolution. A central governance structure will safeguard consistency in KPIs, AI rules, and compliance with global standards (GDPR, AI Act, APAC data residency) At the same time, the system’s continuous learning loop ensures recommendations evolve with advisor feedback and client outcomes, maintaining relevance over time
By embedding these enablers, your company ensures that AI Coaching becomes a driver of measurable improvements in advisor productivity, client satisfaction, and loyalty scaling excellence across regions while preserving the human touch that defines luxury
