Ready Set AI Coach

What It Is

One experience, built around your growth.

The Ready Set brings together AI coaching, structured online courses, and peer-driven pulse feedback into a single, connected development experience. Each tool informs the others — your coaching conversations connect to your course work, your pulse results feed your altitude tracking, and all of it moves you forward on your development path.

This is self-directed development. The methodology and frameworks come from real coaching practice, but the experience is yours to drive — at your pace, on your schedule, from wherever you are in your career.

Starts where you are
Whether you're an individual contributor early in your career or a leader managing teams, the experience meets you at your current rung and builds from there.
Everything connected
Your coaching, your courses, and your pulse feedback all tie into the same development profile — so nothing exists in a silo.
Progress that compounds
Each session, course module, and pulse result adds to a growing picture of where you've been and what's next — visible in your dashboard over time.
Real frameworks, not generic AI
The Ready Set's coaching methodology and course curriculum are built by practitioners — the AI delivers it, but the thinking behind it is human.

How It Works

From first session to lasting development.

01

Onboarding

Your first AI coaching session is a structured onboarding conversation. You share your role, your goals, and where you want to go. The coach builds your profile and assigns your development track.

02

Coaching & Learning

Regular coaching sessions, track-aligned online courses, and periodic pulse feedback requests work together — each one reinforcing what you're working on in the others.

03

Pulse Check-Ins

360 pulse requests go out to the people around you. Their feedback maps to your focus areas and comes back as a structured summary — an outside view of the growth you're working on.

04

Altitude Progress

Over time, coaching patterns, course completion, and pulse results all feed your altitude tracking. You can see exactly where you are on the framework and what's required to move up.

The Altitude Framework

Your career arc, made visible.

The Altitude Framework is the backbone of The Ready Set experience. It maps the full arc of professional development — from an individual contributor finding their footing to a senior leader shaping culture and vision. Every tool in the platform connects back to your current rung and what it takes to reach the next one.

Rung 1

Building foundational self-awareness and the core habits that sustainable professional growth requires. A natural starting point for early-career contributors.

Rung 2

Translating awareness into consistent action. Beginning to influence outcomes with intention rather than instinct, and establishing credibility with peers.

Rung 3

Operating with clear priorities. Managing complexity, leading others with confidence, and making decisions that hold up under pressure.

Rung 4

Amplifying impact through systems, delegation, and the intentional development of the people around you. Leading teams, not just tasks.

Rung 5

Operating at the level where decisions, culture, and vision shape the organization — and outlast any individual moment or role.

What to Expect

Your experience, start to finish.

Here's what working with The Ready Set actually looks like — from your first session through ongoing development.

Day One

A real conversation, not a setup flow

Your first AI coaching session is a genuine onboarding conversation — not a form. The coach asks, listens, and begins building your development profile from the first exchange.

First Month

Your track and courses take shape

As coaching sessions accumulate, your track solidifies and your course recommendations align. The coach begins connecting themes across conversations you may not have noticed yourself.

Ongoing

A partner that carries context

The coach remembers your goals, your breakthroughs, and your recurring challenges. Everything you've worked on informs what comes next — nothing resets between sessions.

Periodically

360 pulse feedback from your circle

You send pulse requests to colleagues, direct reports, or managers. Their structured feedback comes back as a summary mapped to your focus areas — an honest outside view of your development.

Your Dashboard

Everything in one place

Your portal gives you access to pulse reports, course progress, your coaching profile, and your altitude tracking — all visible in a private, secure dashboard.

The Methodology

Built on real coaching expertise

Every framework, course, and coaching prompt comes from The Ready Set's practice. This is self-directed development — but the thinking behind it is grounded in years of real coaching work.

Why It's Different

Development that actually compounds.

Most development is fragmented — a course here, a feedback conversation there, a coaching session that doesn't connect to anything else. The Ready Set is designed to be integrated. Everything points at the same picture of you, and every tool makes the others more useful over time.

One profile, three tools. Your AI coaching, course progress, and pulse results all connect to the same development profile. Nothing lives in a silo.

Works at every career stage. Whether you're an individual contributor just starting out or a senior leader, the framework maps where you are and what's next.

No scheduling friction. Coaching available at 6am before a hard day or 10pm after one. Self-directed means on your terms.

An inside and outside view. Coaching gives you your own reflection. Pulse feedback gives you the view from the people around you. Together, the picture is complete.

Progress you can show. Pulse summaries, altitude tracking, and course completion make growth visible — to you, and to anyone invested in your development.

Common Questions

Straight answers.

The AI delivers the experience, but everything behind it — the coaching frameworks, the altitude structure, the course curriculum, the pulse feedback questions — was built by The Ready Set's coaching team. It's not a general AI repurposed for coaching. It was designed specifically for professional development, from the ground up.

ChatGPT has no memory of you, no framework guiding it, and no connection to course content or peer feedback. The Ready Set AI Coach carries your full development profile — goals, history, track, altitude — and every session builds on it. It's also connected to courses and pulse feedback, so the coaching doesn't exist in isolation. It's a system, not a chat window.

Both. The Altitude Framework is designed to span the full career arc — Rung 1 is built for professionals who are early in their development journey, whether that's a new manager, a high-potential individual contributor, or anyone building foundational skills. Rung 5 is for senior leaders. You start where you are and move up from there.

Anything a professional deals with — a difficult conversation you're avoiding, a decision you can't get clarity on, a leadership challenge, a career transition. The coach can also run structured sessions tied to your track: goal review, behavior reflection, accountability work, and preparation for whatever's coming next.

You send pulse feedback requests to colleagues, managers, or direct reports — whoever makes sense for what you're working on. They answer a short structured set of questions tied to your focus areas. You receive a summary report that maps their input to your development themes and altitude stage. It's not a performance review — it's a development tool, designed to give you useful signal, not a score.

Your coaching sessions and pulse data are private and stored securely. This is self-directed development — your data is yours. Pulse respondents' individual answers are anonymized in the summary you receive, and your overall profile is never shared without your knowledge.

Your development,
always moving forward
— wherever you start.
