How will AI impact your nonprofit's workplace culture? What is your strategic play to prepare?
- I think we are starting from a place of centering the heart of our people and culture, and then moving into AI. So not trying to adjust our team to AI but rather use AI in a way that feels in alignment with our team culture. It would be easy to try to force it, but we want to make it be an extension of what we have already created culturally as a team.
AubrieFennecken After listening to the session about reskilling and jobs with Meg Garlinghouse and Karin Kimbrough on the second day of the conference https://www.linkedin.com/posts/bethkanter_feeling-inspired-after-joining-karin-kimbrough-activity-7158974334483472384-UiEk?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop
Data says …
12% of nonprofit job tasks will be augmented or change
39% of nonprofit job tasks disrupted
Disrupted does not mean the job will be eliminated but it means that the job might shift to different tasks and require using or learning different skills (and that would need some re-skilling)
For example, a fundraiser whose job is “disrupted,” may save a lot of time on desk prospect research and have more time to take donors out to lunch or cultivate.
So, maybe the first step is start with an adoption strategy that includes AI skilling first, continue to assess how time is being freed up and allocated, and adapt jobs.I thoroughly enjoyed the discussion!
