*   **360-degree feedback:** Aggregating feedback from peers, subordinates, and superiors.
*   **Project leadership roles:** Identifying individuals who have successfully led key initiatives or [Rocks](/qa/integrating-ai-for-predictive-forecasting-of-eos-rocks-completion-and-its-impact-on-exit-value).
*   **Communication patterns:** Analyzing interactions within collaboration tools to spot individuals who clarify complex issues and foster team cohesion.

For instance, AI can flag individuals who:
