Coaching Conversations in 2025 Overcoming Resistance to Change in the Workplace: Debating AI's Role in Professional Development
Ever wonder why some professionals embrace growth while others balk at the mere suggestion of change? This episode peels back the layers of resistance in the workplace, especially prevalent in the banking sector, where the reluctance to up-sell or cross-sell and aversion to feedback and coaching often impede progress. We dissect the underlying attitudes and motivations—or lack thereof—that can thwart personal development, and debate whether artificial intelligence is the panacea for such deep-seated behavioral challenges.
We confront the reality that the success of any training hinges less on the content delivered and more on the continuous reinforcement and willingness of both the learner and the leader to engage in the process. Our conversation takes a critical turn as we contemplate the future of leadership and coaching in an AI-driven world, raising alarms about the potential abdication of vital talent development responsibilities. Tune in for an eye-opening discussion that could alter how you perceive the intersection of technology, self-awareness, and professional growth.
