# How should a CEO and HR divide responsibility for an Empatyzer pilot?

In an Empatyzer pilot, the CEO or executive sponsor usually defines the business problem and backs participation, while HR shapes the developmental purpose, explains the privacy boundaries and runs the evaluation.

Someone also needs to own the setup: the organization owner manages the plan, department names, members and verified email domains, and can grant selected permissions to HR colleagues. A simple start can take under an hour, self-service or with a professional trainer guiding the launch. Neither role gives access to private conversations or full individual results.
