Are you wondering where to start with AI?

Chances are you and your colleagues are already using it for some things, and wondering how to use it better, or whether you should be using it at all.

In this webinar, she shares tips and best practices on improving your AI prompts for communication success and explores situations where AI can improve the day-to-day job satisfaction for nonprofit staff. You can hear more from Brenda in our podcast discussion of AI tips here.
