Reads like an AI generated ad for coaching. Someone please chime in if you feel otherwise but IMO this one is not worth the read.

It seems like AI to me as well. “That’s the gap” is a familiar Claude-ism, as are the references to a “pivot” and the use of “touch” to mean “affect”.

To be fair, I’ve reached the point where most random blog posts I read on the internet seem AI written, so it could just be confirmation bias on my part.

Hard disagree on “not worth the read”.

It doesn’t sound too AI generated, and the stories flow well without much text that mean nothing. (Also, she’s a consultant, so writing this content is meant to signal some professional skill. There’s not much spam, just 1 blog article a month.)

Even if it had AI help to edit, the content still matches my lived experiences of people mgmt.

That means we are crossing the line and people can't tell anymore.

Most likely this is the author's story enhanced with AI and then edited. That is the future I think.

Not hard data: ChatGPT and Gemini both say that the article sounds like written by a human most likely with AI assistance.

Doesn’t mean it’s not an ad for coaching. I share your sentiment. (So do ChatGPT and Gemini, they also agree that the article sounds like an ad)
