AI role-play: give difficult feedback to a junior team member

The situation

Lucas, 24, has been a customer adviser at a bank branch for 8 months and has just run a phone prospecting session. His results are solid: 8 appointments from 28 calls.

His follow-up, however, is falling short: 3 missing CRM records, a disrupted schedule and a customer called back by mistake. You are his manager and you are meeting him to talk it through.

Who you're talking to
Lucas Martin
Lucas Martin
Junior customer adviser

A motivated but disorganised young bank adviser: he wants to do well, but lacks method.

The setting
Manager's office, door closed

Scheduled one-to-one meeting, face to face, with no interruptions expected.

Your goal

  • Recognise his results before raising the points of concern.
  • Help him see the concrete impact of his oversights on the team and on customers.
  • Secure a measurable commitment: what, and by when.
  • Work out with him a way to do the follow-up after every call.

What the debrief looks at

  • The balance between recognition and correction.
  • Reliance on concrete facts, with no vague criticism or moralising tone.
  • A specific, verifiable commitment, not just a quick ‘noted’.
  • A realistic action plan, built with him.

Frequently asked questions

How does this AI role-play work?

You talk out loud with Lucas, an AI persona who reacts to what you say, for up to 10 minutes. He may get defensive if you open with criticism, or make promises without really committing if you stay vague.

Do I need an account to try it?

No. The trial runs directly in your browser, with no account and no credit card. Your browser only asks for access to your microphone.

What does the debrief cover?

Right after the conversation, the debrief goes through the scenario's criteria: the balance between recognition and correction, reliance on facts, how specific the commitment is and the action plan you built together.

Can we adapt this scenario to our own cases?

Yes. With the SAM authoring tool, your trainers describe the situation and start from your documents: SAM builds the persona, the scene, the scenario and the debrief rubric, with no code. Simulations then plug into your LMS via SCORM or LTI 1.3.
