Introducing Galileo™ for Managers, The Leadership Guru At Your Fingertips
Introducing Galileo® for Managers, the leadership guru at the fingertips of every manager.
It’s hard to be a manager: hiring people, setting goals, creating alignment, and coaching can be difficult. And expectations for leaders are high: companies are trimming mid-level leaders every day.
What if you had an AI agent trained on every possible management and leadership issue you encounter? You could ask it questions, get advice, and it help you diagnose problems, coach you, and give you detailed solutions.
Well it’s now available, and we call it Galileo for Managers.
How Galileo Was Developed.
We have been studying management, leadership, and HR for three decades, including roles in every industry around the world. This information, coupled with detailed job and competency models from Lightcast, SHL, Heidrick, Reejig, Visier, and others, helped us create the Galileo Agent, now used by more than 4,000 HR professionals. (Galileo Platform explained here.)
Galileo for Managers is the newest release of Galileo, trained with more than 100 new prompts to directly support the issue that leaders and managers face. In other words, we’ve taken 25+ years of human resources research and transformed it into the most advanced, easy-to-use management coach in the world.
Why Galileo for Managers Is Important.
Managers make up the backbone of your company. Over the last decade the role of managers has changed. Today we deal with remote work, employee overload, rapidly changing skills, and AI-fueled transformation. And expectations keep going up: companies like Microsoft and IBM are flattening the organization and asking managers to do even more. (AI will soon become a manager.)
At the same time, HR budgets are shrinking, making it harder for HR teams to provide support. Topics like performance management, hiring, coaching, and development planning are left to leaders with operational jobs to do.
Galileo takes world-class management practices and puts them into a tool for anyone.
Managers can ask any question and get personalized advice, examples, tools, and training. And information in Galileo is validated and trusted by research, not “advice columns” you read in a blog.
What Can Galileo for Managers Do? A lot.
You may ask simple questions like: How do I hire a new employee? How should I set goals? How do I coach a low-performer? How do I write a performance plan?
Or you may face more complex challenges: How do I build a development plan for Job X? How do I assess an employee for leadership? How should I reorganize my team for productivity?
And you may have operational needs: How should I run my staff meetings? What’s the best process for check-ins? What are my blind spots as a manager? How do I optimize the entire team?
Galileo for Managers Meets These Management Needs and More.
A manager can go into Galileo and ask any question about the team, their role, and what world-class looks like. Galileo will answer, coach you on next steps, and recommend learning, videos, and resources to help.
Thanks to its massive corpus of information, Galileo knows every major job title, job responsibility, pay, and skill levels for tens of thousands of jobs in the world.
It has detailed data on pay by location, job roles, and a universal competency framework developed from decades of research. This lets you ask questions about job skills, behaviors, pay, and career growth. It understands what a “high-performer” looks like.
And Galileo is a coach. Through our agentic prompts, Galileo will coach you by asking you questions, diagnosing your situation, and giving you solutions and examples to help. It leverages more than 500 industry case studies to show you precisely what to do.
If you collect information from your people (their goals, performance plans, and project check-ins), Galileo knows what people are doing and can help you assess their skills and blind spots.
I asked Galileo to look at the last six months of meetings I attended in our company and it gave me the list of people and a sophisticated assessment of our strengths and weaknesses as a team, even telling me who was expert in what area.
I can then ask Galileo to give me performance suggestions for each person, helping me balance the team. By recording our meetings, Galileo analyzes our work and continuously gets smarter about people’s role, strengths, and skills.
Galileo is Trusted and Valid.
Galileo never “makes stuff up.”
The system always answers with reference data and real world examples. And now it connects to Galileo Learn, which includes more than 750 courses in all areas of management, leadership, HR, economics, and technology.
So if you’re struggling to set goals or build a behavioral interview, Galileo will not only help you assess a candidate it will also recommend courses to help.
And you can supplement Galileo with your own company’s policies and tools, turning it into your company’s management assistant, fueled by our global research and data.
This Is Only The Beginning.
There’s much more to come. I believe this type of AI agent will revolutionize leadership development, helping people upskill in real time.
And it helps you scale HR. By operating as a digital HR business partner and AI-powered executive coach, Galileo lets HR teams scale their expertise and distribute programs and policies to the organization at speed.
Now every manager and employee can have an AI-based management and coaching agent like Galileo to help them. The cost is less than the cost of a cup of coffee, and the value is enormous. And the potential to scale and drive change is unparalleled.
Imagine a bank, insurance company, or pharmaceutical company going through a merger or transformation. With Galileo for Managers, the HR team can publish a video from the CEO and each manager can immediately ask questions and understand their role in the change.
It’s the most powerful “change management” platform ever invented.
Galileo Works With Your AI Platform Strategy.
What if you already have an AI agent in your company? Galileo works in every major platform. Today you can license Galileo within ServiceNow NowAssist, and Galileo for Microsoft Copilot and SAP Joule is coming later this year.
If you have an internal AI agent (perhaps built on ChatGPT), Galileo integrates into your custom agents as well. And more partnerships are coming soon, including our new partnership with HiBob for small to medium-sized companies.
The sky’s the limit here.
Now you can get access to world-class research, salary and skills benchmarks, job-specific advice, and world-class management tools for every industry now for only $39 a month.
