Gloat Career Pathing vs Workday Talent Management

Gloat Career Pathing is web software for organizations that want to help employees plan development and explore possible career directions. Employees can compare paths, select an aspirational role or destination, and identify skills and experiences to build toward it. Personalized roadmaps account for employees’ goals and company needs, while Gloat’s Career Coach Agent draws on skills, aspirations, performance, trajectory, and organizational opportunities to offer guidance. The tools can connect employees with projects, gigs, courses, coaching, mentoring, and volunteering. They can also suggest goals over short, medium, and long horizons, and identify readiness gaps for a target role with actions to address them. The Talent Marketplace links an organization’s LXP and LMS solutions and recommends relevant courses. Gloat lists integrations with SAP SuccessFactors, Workday, Oracle HCM, Microsoft Teams, and Microsoft Copilot, and says it can integrate with any HCM system. Governance controls can enforce mobility and approval rules and retain an audit trail of AI actions. The product is enterprise-oriented, runs on the web, and has pricing on request.
