Development without accurate assessment is just guesswork. In this webinar, researcher Andy Loignon unpacks what our HiFi Conversation Analytics™ tool makes newly measurable in senior leader behavior — the patterns, gaps, and opportunities that traditional tools miss.

But measurement alone doesn’t create change: the most powerful developmental insights sit at the intersection of rigorous measurement and human judgment. HiFi is built on a human-in-the-loop model: the AI captures behavioral data; facilitators and peers do the interpretive work that turns data into development. Andy walks through what that looks like in practice — and what it reveals when an organization applies its own stated principles about AI and human judgment to its development work.

What You’ll Learn

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

  • What our AI-driven analytics tool actually measures, and why the behaviors it captures predict influence more reliably than formal authority
  • How we integrated AI into a senior leadership program — the design decisions, the tradeoffs, and where human expertise had to lead
  • Why the data alone isn’t enough: How facilitators use behavioral insight to surface the conversations leaders need to have
  • What a human-in-the-loop assessment model looks like in practice — and what it means for how organizations think about AI-assisted development
