Case Study: BenevolentAI builds inclusive leaders with Circl coaching programmes

Benevolant AI boosts coaching confidence by 90% with Circl

BenevolentAI, a company specializing in AI and biotechnology, partnered with the vendor Circl to address a challenge in embedding inclusion and innovation within its leadership. The company sought to provide its senior scientists and engineers with a way to develop their leadership capabilities while also engaging meaningfully with underrepresented communities, moving beyond traditional internal management training.

Circl implemented a leadership development programme focused on coaching. This involved expert-led training for BenevolentAI's professionals, who were then matched with young Future Leaders from disadvantaged backgrounds for weekly coaching practice. The results were significant, with 90% of participants gaining confidence in their coaching abilities and 80% applying these new skills at work. The programme also led to improved team communication, increased employee pride, and a stronger sense of inclusion, demonstrating a clear measurable impact for Circl's customer.
