Coaching

XBuddy Coaching runs structured one-on-one and group coaching across your organization. Coaches design Programs from reusable Program Templates, enrol coachees into Engagements, and hold Sessions against tracked Competencies. Coachees follow their own journey through a dedicated Coachee Portal — accessible by PIN or token even for people without a full XBuddy login — while analytics measure engagement progress and coaching effectiveness.

Two audiences, one system. Coaches and coordinators work in the main app (Programs, Engagements, Sessions); coachees work in the lightweight Coachee Portal (My Journey, My Sessions, My Goals). The two share the same underlying engagement and competency data.

Key Features

  • Coaching Programs built from reusable Program Templates
