Our take
Sounding Board is a cloud-based coaching platform, which develops leadership skills among people in the business environment. The company provides a unified platform, which makes it possible for enterprises to seamlessly manage, scale and measure their coaching efforts.
Central to this process are AI-powered tools, which ensure that businesses have no requirement to invest resources in the administration of their training operation. A variety of other features enable companies to schedule training more easily, while AI and machine learning algorithms drill down into the learning requirements of individual employees.
The innovative platform provided by Sounding Board enables companies to separate themselves from the opposition via customization and intelligent recommendations, while providing a dynamic coaching ecosystem. Moving forward, the company will invest series B funding into expanding operations and its business reach.
