RCM ThinkLabs is the human capability layer for AI transformation. People play immersive micro-sessions of a few minutes a day, built on MIT game-theory research, and make real calls inside a continuing story. Leaders get a measured record of how each person's judgment changes over time across three capabilities: specification, verification and conviction.
At a glance
| Capability | BTS | RCM ThinkLabs |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | A consultancy (BTS Group AB) | The human capability layer for AI transformation |
| Format | Business simulations, AI role-play, workshops and coaching | Immersive micro-sessions in the browser |
| Cadence | Built around programs and events | A few minutes a day, continuous |
| Setup | Custom design per program | Capabilities agreed with you before anyone plays |
| What leaders get | Program results and assessments | Each person's trajectory against their own baseline, and a deep-dive report every 30 days |
Where BTS fits
You need a program with facilitators in the room. You are running a strategy rollout, an executive offsite or a succession process. You want one firm for design, delivery, coaching and consulting.
Where RCM ThinkLabs differs
BTS argues that organizations should make judgment measurable. A multi-day program is a moment. Judgment, though, builds through repetition with feedback. RCM ThinkLabs supplies the repetitions between moments, and measures each person against their own baseline, so you can see whether what the program built has held.
Using both
Run RCM ThinkLabs alongside a leadership program. You get a baseline before it, a record after it, and practice in between.
What RCM ThinkLabs does
People come back by choice. At one deployment, 70% played daily and nobody was assigned. The evidence
A measured baseline in 30 days. Every person is measured against their own baseline, and the record updates after every session. How the baseline works
Feedback after every session. Each person gets private, specific feedback from a character in the story, and a deep-dive report every 30 days. How a session works
Measured in production at one deployment. Read the evidence or compare other approaches.
The work that built judgment is disappearing.
AI took over much of the work people used to learn on. The responsibility stayed with them. Document review, first-pass analysis, routine reporting: the everyday work that taught people how to think a problem through is the work AI took first.
They are making calls that matter, with real people on the other side, having rehearsed none of them. RCM ThinkLabs gives them the rehearsal: a few minutes a day, with private feedback after every session.

Questions leaders ask
Is RCM ThinkLabs a replacement for a leadership program?
No. It is a continuous layer that runs between programs and shows whether their effect lasts.
How much time does RCM ThinkLabs ask of people?
A few minutes a day. Nothing to install, and it runs in the browser.
Does RCM ThinkLabs need facilitators?
No. Each participant gets private, specific feedback from a character in the story after every session.
