New offering combines AI-powered practice simulations with professional coaching for measurable skills acquisition and improvement


Mursion, an award-winning workforce upskilling platform, today announced the acquisition of Valor Performance, a top platform for leadership coaching and micro-learning. This strategic acquisition expands Mursion’s product offering to integrate personalized performance mindset coaching into their signature AI-powered practice simulations. The result is a comprehensive workforce skills-building platform that delivers transformative and quantifiable results across all levels of an organization.


The impact of executive coaching was recently tracked by the International Coaching Federation, and they found it leads to a 70% increase in individual performance, a 50% increase in team performance, and a 48% increase in organizational performance. This kind of impact is what drives Mursion’s mission to help build skills and behaviors that help individuals thrive, leading to thriving organizations.

“We are thrilled to add Valor’s coaching expertise to our advanced simulated practice platform,” said Mark Atkinson, CEO of Mursion.”Both our Fortune 500 and mid-market customers have asked us to add certified coaching to our solution, and there is no better provider of this than Valor. Combining human insights with machine precision will put unprecedented power into the hands of our users to help build confidence across their workforce and positively impact their bottom line.”


Valor has established a strong reputation for its industry-leading engagement rates, high-caliber global coach community, and proven individual, team and organizational impact. This new, integrated offering will combine the power of coaching guidance and lifelike practice simulations. It will help users learn, practice and master mindset strategies and interpersonal skills that build strong, high-performing workforces. The service will be offered through a modular subscription model that scales across organizational levels and business units to adapt to changing business needs.


Sarah Milby, CEO and Founder of Valor Performance, added, “Joining forces with Mursion will dramatically extend the impact of our coaching solutions and deliver even more value to our customers. Now they will have a range of experiential and transformative learning tools that can be rolled out across all levels of the organization, delivering greater impact.”
