AI-powered practice for every leader
Empower leaders to rehearse tough moments before they happen via AI simulations, supported by personalized feedback and insight that drives measurable, applied leadership growth.
HOW IT WORKS
Build leadership readiness through immersive practice
Coaching creates the foundation. AI-powered simulations help leaders apply it in the moments that matter most. These immersive practice sessions give leaders space to apply what they’re learning, when leadership decisions carry the most weight.
Torch simulations are 5–7 minute, scenario-based exercises that replicate real leadership challenges. These include high-stakes conversations like delivering constructive feedback to a struggling team member, navigating identity and authority in a cross-functional conflict, or guiding a team through ambiguous change.
Each simulation unfolds dynamically, leaders choose how to respond, and the scenario shifts in real time. A manager hesitating to give direct feedback will experience different prompts and outcomes than one who takes a bold approach. This ensures each experience aligns with their role, goals, and context.
Immediately after the simulation, leaders receive personalized guidance from Coach Maya. This includes a breakdown of what their responses signaled, how behaviors aligned to inclusive leadership standards, and suggested strategies for strengthening impact in future moments.
Insights from each simulation sync directly with coaching sessions. Leaders can reflect on specific behaviors, surface new growth goals, and return to simulations later to reinforce learning. It’s real-time application tied to the broader coaching journey.
Meet Coach Maya
Torch’s simulations use behavioral science and inclusive design to help leaders develop skills while building awareness of bias and decision-making under pressure.
Coach Maya, your AI advisor, guides leaders through pivotal moments with personalized feedback and reflection prompts—available in simulations or standalone.
Feedback adapts to each leader’s behavior and your org’s culture, with progress tracked over time so leaders can revisit key moments and build confidence.
With Coach Maya, leaders can:
- Practice key leadership moments in bite-sized, on-demand AI simulations (5–7 mins)
- Get always-on feedback based on demonstrated skills and behaviors
- Customize scenarios to match their goals, role, and real-world challenges
- Track growth over time, aligned to org priorities and leadership capacities
Part of your leadership intelligence system
AI-powered learning is fully integrated with Torch coaching and insight tools. It’s not a feature, it’s part of a connected system built for leadership capacity at every level. It all adds up to smarter, faster growth, at the individual, team, and organizational level.
AI-powered learning is one part of the Torch leadership intelligence system. Each format supports a different aspect of how people lead, collaborate, and deliver, so growth isn’t siloed. It’s shared, measurable, and connected.

How Torch AI-powered learning works, and what it makes possible
AI-powered learning complements coaching by giving leaders a space to practice what they’re learning and receive adaptive feedback. It’s part of Torch’s integrated system that connects leadership development to real behaviors, business priorities, and measurable outcomes, so leaders aren’t just learning, they’re applying skills that matter.
No. Torch simulations are designed to complement coaching, not replace it. Leaders use them to apply what they’re learning, reinforce key behaviors, and reflect in the moment. Coaches can reference simulation insights to guide deeper conversations.
Organizations using AI-powered learning with Torch often see faster behavior change, greater confidence in leadership moments, and more consistent coaching outcomes. Because simulations are tied to real challenges, they drive measurable shifts in decision-making, collaboration, and communication, tracked through feedback, coach insights, and platform dashboards.
Torch simulations address common leadership challenges such as giving feedback, navigating identity and power, leading inclusively, resolving conflict, and managing team dynamics. New scenarios are added regularly, and simulations can be customized to reflect your organization’s values, priorities, and industry context.
