AI-powered intelligence to help HR leaders make smarter, faster, more human decisions.
HR leaders are no longer just responsible for programs and policies. They are expected to guide the business through constant change—burnout, hybrid work, talent shortages, leadership gaps, and cultural risk—often without the insight needed to act proactively.
HR Strategic Assistant is an AI-powered partner designed specifically for HR and People leaders. It turns Motivation Science into real-time workforce intelligence—so HR can move from reactive support to proactive strategy.
Powered by Motivation Science and Sherpa.AI, HR Strategic Assistant helps you understand why your workforce behaves the way it does—and what to do about it.
The Problem
HR is expected to lead strategy—without strategic visibility.
Most HR teams are operating with tools that tell them what already happened, not what’s about to happen.
Common challenges include:
-
Engagement surveys that arrive too late
-
Burnout discovered after performance drops or resignations
-
Limited visibility into manager effectiveness
-
Difficulty predicting turnover, disengagement, or change fatigue
-
One-size-fits-all programs that don’t scale
-
Pressure to advise leadership without behavioral insight
HR leaders are asked to answer questions like:
Traditional HR systems don’t have these answers.
The Solution
A strategic AI assistant built for modern HR leadership.
HR Strategic Assistant gives HR leaders a real-time intelligence layer on top of their workforce—focused on motivation, behavior, and risk.
Instead of relying on lagging indicators, HR gains early insight into:
-
Motivational alignment and misalignment
-
Burnout risk before it becomes visible
-
Manager impact on engagement and trust
-
Change readiness and resistance
-
Cultural friction points
-
Retention risk tied to motivation, not just tenure
It doesn’t replace HR judgment—it augments it with science and AI.
