Development that's architecturally private—not just policy-private
Your employees' growth space is technically separated from evaluation data. It's not just confidential—it's impossible to access. When employees believe their development is truly private, they actually develop.
Based on Kolb's Experiential Learning Theory (1984)
How privacy architecture works
Most platforms say development is private. Ours actually is.
Policy-private
"We promise not to look"
- •Admin override exists
- •Manager exception possible
- •"Just this once" happens
Architecturally private
"We literally cannot look"
- Separate system with no access path
- No admin override
- No manager exception
My Growth data is stored in a separate system with no access path to evaluation data. No admin override. No manager exception. No "just this once."
The learning cycle that actually works
Based on Kolb's Experiential Learning Theory—the most validated model of how adults learn and grow. Four stages, continuously cycling.
Notice
Grow Your Awareness
Growth starts with seeing. Employees flag moments that matter—challenges, successes, feedback—and build awareness of their patterns and opportunities.
Output
Awareness
A growing library of moments that reveal strengths and growth edges
Reflect
Generate Insights
Awareness becomes insight through reflection. Val guides employees with prompts that help them understand the 'why' behind their experiences.
Output
Insights
Concrete realizations about what works and what to change

Boost Your Know-How
Insights become know-how through practice. Employees design micro-experiments, apply new approaches, and track what actually works in their context.
Output
Know-How
Practical skills tested and refined through real-world application
Capture
Build Your Competency Portfolio
Know-how becomes documented competency. Employees map their growth to your company's competency framework, link external credentials from LinkedIn Learning and Coursera, and build evidence of their capabilities.
Output
Competency Portfolio
Evidence-based competency claims tied to your organization's framework

- Flag feedback that surprised you
- Mark a skill gap you discovered
Stage 2
Reflect
Awareness becomes insight through reflection. Val guides employees with prompts that help them understand the 'why' behind their experiences.
ReflectInsights
Concrete realizations about what works and what to change
- Why did that approach work?
- What triggered my reaction?
- What pattern am I seeing across these moments?
Stage 3
Try
Insights become know-how through practice. Employees design micro-experiments, apply new approaches, and track what actually works in their context.
TryKnow-How
Practical skills tested and refined through real-world application
- Test a new feedback approach in your next 1-on-1
- Practice active listening in a low-stakes meeting
- Try the delegation framework you learned
Stage 4
Capture
Know-how becomes documented competency. Employees map their growth to your company's competency framework, link external credentials from LinkedIn Learning and Coursera, and build evidence of their capabilities.
CaptureCompetency Portfolio
Evidence-based competency claims tied to your organization's framework
- Link growth evidence to competency definitions
- Import badges and certificates from learning platforms
- Build a portfolio of demonstrated capabilities
Private AI coaching at every stage
Val guides employees through each stage of the learning cycle—asking the right questions, suggesting experiments, and helping them capture insights. All completely private.
- Prompts that deepen reflection
- Suggestions for micro-experiments
- Help articulating what you've learned
- Pattern recognition across your growth
You noticed:
"I got defensive when Sarah gave me feedback in the meeting"
That's a valuable thing to notice. What do you think triggered that reaction? Was it the content, the timing, or something else?
Connect external learning to your growth
Your employees can link coursework from LinkedIn Learning, Coursera, and other platforms directly to their competency goals. Course progress syncs to My Growth, and completed badges flow into their Portfolio.
- Browse recommended courses based on competency focus
- Track course progress alongside experiential learning
- Import badges and certificates automatically
- Link credentials to competency claims in Portfolio
