“I don't think there's many days I go through a conversation without someone talking about Nadia. We're starting to really connect the dots across the whole business around how powerful this can be.”

“Now we have the ability to give them Valence’s AI coach that can answer specific questions to make them a better professional. I’m almost giddy about the potential. We can transform how we develop leaders.”

"We've now been able to offer Nadia as a support for our change management initiatives. Nadia's like an extension of us. She's an extension of our HR team, and able to support the organization in these moments that they need somebody.”

"The pull has been astronomical. I've never seen an NPS as high as the one we got: 97%."

"With Valence, we're seeing that employees are taking the ownership to drive their respective careers, and looking at Nadia as that go-to resource to help them with learning, growth, and development.”

"Nadia seamlessly integrated into [VML’s] Thrive program. Employees understand the concept and the philosophy, but Nadia helps them self-reflect, make sense of feedback, hold themselves accountable to goals, and create development plans."

"Power users of Nadia — those using it a lot and for a variety of use cases — were 28% more likely to move up a performance rating category."

"I'm so happy with Valence’s tools — they give us a shared language around how to actually leverage our differences, and I'm excited for everyone at On to have that."

"We all have too many things to do and not enough time. With tools like Valence's Nadia, we not only gain some time back, we can become much better thinkers, leaders, and team players."

“My single biggest frustration as a leader at Vanguard, on the talent front, was that we invested an inordinate amount of time and money in training new leaders, and then, unless you're putting them back in the classroom on a weekly basis, they're going to lose a lot of it. But now, you have the ability to give them an AI coach."

“Now we have the ability to give them Valence’s AI coach that can answer specific questions to make them a better professional. I’m almost giddy about the potential. We can transform how we develop leaders.”

“We all have too many things to do and not enough time to do it. We just don't have the capacity to do deep work. With tools like Valence's Nadia, we not only gain some time back, we can become much better thinkers, leaders, and team players.”

”I'm on the board at Kraft Heinz, and Nadia is helping their frontline supervisors deal with difficult situations at work. You could never scale human coaching that way. But they're able to get support right when they need it, and they come in prepared and feeling like they can handle any situation.”

"Nadia was able to retrieve all the grounded information related to Delta and what really stood out was the shock of 'wow, this actually knows us' which helped to drive engagement."

"We know that coaching works, and Nadia has given us an opportunity to provide it to all of our employees rather than just the top tier of executives."

“We now have several thousand employees using Nadia for various needs, including career planning, challenging conversation role-play, team management and managing interpersonal relationships. Nadia, despite being AI, is seen as very personal, a safe space to ask questions, and people particularly liked the confidentiality, always-on access and personalisation.”

"I’ve never seen adoption like it. We’ve given all of our leaders the ability to be coached whenever they want, in their own language, in the safety of their own space."

"We brought Nadia in last year and employees love it. We're very excited about how Nadia can bring a more personalized, people-oriented talent strategy to life."

"With Nadia, we can offer real-time coaching that helps us align our people with company goals in a way that drives performance."

"Nadia puts coaching in the hands of every leader in our business, even if they're 10 gates away from their desks. It reflects how we want to lead and is rooted in our values."

"We believe an AI coach is the best way to really build digital and AI skills — versus classroom training where everyone goes at once."

"This is an awesome partnership. I have 100% confidence that Valence has our back and they're giving us the best advice."

"We’ve got about 54,000 people in 60 countries and 10,000 managers. I can't wait for them all to be using Nadia. We're already seeing it be fantastic. It already is a game changer."

"Nadia is a partner in reinforcing what matters most to our business for all of our people."

"If you can get in-the-moment, real-time coaching, can you imagine the dynamic it changes? A 1% increase in close rate is worth $1.5 billion in top line sales. That's why we got excited about Nadia."

"Nadia has become a super business partner for us — consistently, all languages, real time — reinforcing the things we would normally have to distribute through each individual business partner."

"An AI tool like Nadia that's seen millions of people learning about something will be very good at recognizing patterns for an individual person. It's what a really good teacher can do."

"All of our courses are being loaded into Nadia. When people ask questions, the responses have the Hearst lens."

"Specialized AI functions like Nadia cross new boundaries where one tool isn't enough, and it's the centralized features that matter. We're going to start seeing real disruption here."

"Are AI coaches like Nadia going to transform management? I think so."

"AI, because of its power of hyper-personalization — take a coach like Nadia — can help us connect with what is best in us."

"Nadia knows our leadership model. She understands our performance review metrics. When you talk to her, she's going to know the language you speak — both literally and figuratively. Nadia helps with better decision making, confidence in your day-to-day, and a stronger high-performance culture."

"The challenge is: how do you train 50,000 frontline leaders? We could bring people to Atlanta for a three-day cultural immersion — but that reaches maybe 2,000 a year. That's where we got excited about Nadia."

"As soon as we started to pilot it, there was an aha moment — oh my gosh, this is actually taking away the fear of AI for our entire workforce. They are loving it."

"Generic AI commoditizes. The real value is at the operating system level — purpose-built, vertical platforms. That's why I was excited about what you're building at Valence."

“We now have several thousand employees using Nadia for various needs, including career planning, challenging conversation role-play, team management and managing interpersonal relationships.
