The AI partner that delivers real-time text-based coaching to guide workplace conversations

"Dale Carnegie Training piloted version 1.0 of Minerva in their programs. It's such a powerful and easy-to-use tool that really helped people change their behaviors. I used it as well and became more effective with people when it counted the most.
 
If all leaders used this, it would make business so much more productive."


-- Jonathan Vehar, former VP of Product for Dale Carnegie

"A game-changer. After a while, NOT using Minerva will be like flying or driving without instruments."

How Minerva works

Minerva asks to join your virtual meeting as an unobtrusive wise listener delivering private-only-to-you, non-distracting coaching in your chat window, like "try summarizing what they are saying soon."

​

Customize Minerva by selecting your preferred coaching frequency and skill goals, or opt for Minerva's pre-set targets, which automatically fine-tune as it gets to know you better.

​

No audible recording message needed. Just a discreet pop-up near the start of your virtual meeting letting others know that Minerva is on board, similar to when an AI notetaker joins. 

​

Minerva is like having a skilled influence and collaboration coach in your ear.

The more you work with Minerva the better it gets at customizing its coaching and analysis to you, earning trusted status with your colleagues, direct reports, partners, clients, and prospects.

Developed by coaching psychologists and in partnership with Microsoft's AI Co-Innovation Lab, Minerva is a leadership and career
growth accelerator.

Minerva is the performance review game changer

Finally, a tool to assess interpersonal skills that moves beyond very low reliability self-report and psychological assessments.

​

Showcase proof of skill growth and conversation success with accurate, summarized growth data during reviews, promotions, or interviews.

 

The most valid data set that any decision maker could hope for. 

 

Data you always own and can opt in or out of sharing.

The science behind Minerva

There's a lot of pseudo-science out there under the AI heading.

 

Minerva's solution is the brainchild of its psychologist CEO who has 30 years of experience in executive and team coaching and knows the difference between solid and fake science. As do the cadre of research advisors who have guided Minerva's founding team since 2019.

​

We know that "smoke and mirror" claims and features like using email data or sentiment analysis to predict personality characteristics are not supported by valid data.

What social science data -- and decades of coaching experience -- do prove is the high value of a specific set of dialogue skills that have a huge positive impact on important workplace conversations across multiple contexts.

HBR Article image

"There have been just a handful of moments over the centuries when we have experienced a huge shift in the skills our economy values most.

 

We are entering one such moment now.
 

Today the knowledge economy is giving way to a relationship economy, in which people skills and social abilities are going to become even more core to success than ever before." 

- Aneesh Raman (work force expert at LinkedIn), and Maria Flynn (president of Jobs for the Future), Feb 2024

"Listening, empathy, and persuasiveness have become far more valued qualifications in C-suite job descriptions and recruiter checklists.

In an era of soft corporate boundaries and intangible value, an ability to tap into and leverage
influence has become indispensable."

- Alison Taylor (NYU Stern professor, author, HBR contributor), March 2024
