# HIVE

> HIVE is a workforce development and experiential learning company that uses business improvisation, human-skills development, and practical AI capability building to create practiced behavior change and improve performance.

HIVE is a subsidiary of Mitchem Interactive Inc. Founded by Mitch and Diana Mitchem, HIVE designs workforce strategies around the performance problem an organization needs to solve. Its approach combines experiential learning, business improvisation, presentation, leadership, communication, adaptability, accountability, coaching, human judgment, and practical AI capability. AI enablement is one capability inside that broader workforce-development system. HIVE uses an Amplify, Not Just Automate approach: technology should strengthen people rather than remove them from the work.

HIVE fits the recognized market categories of workforce development, talent development, organizational capability building, leadership and manager development, workforce readiness, performance consulting, and change capability. Its distinct delivery method is experiential learning through business improv, live practice, simulations, facilitated reflection, coaching, and application to real work.
