What it is

Group coaching combines the benefit of individual coaching with peer learning, and makes coaching accessible to more people at a lower cost.

The group works on a shared theme, each participant sets a personal goal and follows it between sessions with the AI coach and the platform's tools.

We deliver Group Coaching for government, semi-government, private and non-profit organisations in Riyadh, Jeddah, Makkah, Madinah, Dammam, Khobar and across Saudi Arabia and the GCC, in person or online, in Arabic and English.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Group Coaching

How is group coaching different from team coaching?+

In team coaching one team works on shared goals. In group coaching, individuals from different teams work on their own goals in one group.

What group size works?+

Small enough for everyone to speak and be followed up; the size is set when designing the programme.

How is confidentiality kept?+

Participants agree confidentiality rules in the first session, and each person's conversations with the AI coach stay private.

Can it include individual sessions?+

Yes, for some or all participants.

How much does Group Coaching cost?+

The cost depends on the number of participants, the scope and the tools used. We send a detailed quotation after understanding your needs — request a demo and you will receive it within two working days.

Do you offer Group Coaching outside Riyadh?+

Yes. We serve organisations in Riyadh, Jeddah, Makkah, Madinah, Dammam, Khobar and across Saudi Arabia and the GCC, in person or online.
