# What development conversation with an operator can Em help me prepare?

Em, the AI coach in Empatyzer, can help you prepare a development conversation that starts from the operator's actual work, interests and available opportunities rather than a generic office-career script.

Development can mean more than promotion: becoming a go-to expert, mentoring, quality, troubleshooting, training others, taking more ownership or building communication and leadership skills. You can ask Em for questions about learning a new area, asking for support or clarifying expectations. If the operator is a member of the organization currently selected in Empatyzer, has completed the required part of the assessment and has not turned off advice about themselves, select them via the two-person icon so Em also reflects their strengths and motivations.
