Program strategy and design
Use AI to review a volunteering program, examine assumptions, and identify opportunities for more meaningful employee engagement.
AI + Social Impact
You won't just hear about AI. You'll put it to work.
AI is changing how we approach our work. We think corporate social impact professionals deserve room to explore what that means in a practical, thoughtful way. We're weaving AI learning throughout the 2027 experience: as you explore employee engagement, volunteering, nonprofit partnerships, program design, and measurement, you'll have opportunities to practice how AI might help. It isn't a separate track or optional technology workshop. The application begins while you're with us.
Practice alongside people asking similar questions
You don't need to become an AI expert. We want you to grow more confident and thoughtful about using it in your existing role. Activities are built around real-world examples, with time to try an approach, check what it produces, and learn from one another's experiments.
Practice never requires confidential corporate or nonprofit information.
Start with a real work question
Consider where AI might be useful within a challenge you recognize, and where it might miss something important.
Try an approach and examine it
Work through CSR scenarios alongside peers. Question the output, compare perspectives, and notice what changes when human experience informs the work.
Begin deciding what to do next
Our goal is for you to leave having practiced relevant applications and begun useful work, with concrete next steps for your role.
Examples of what you might practice
A few examples to help you picture the learning. Final sessions will be shaped by this year's participants.
Employee engagement
Explore ways to give volunteer champions and ambassadors useful information, tools, and communications that support their work.
Nonprofit and grantee capacity
Try a first draft of an AI-supported capacity-building resource for a nonprofit partner or grantee, starting with their priorities and preserving their autonomy.
Impact measurement and storytelling
Practice analyzing non-confidential qualitative feedback for useful patterns, then ask whose perspective is missing and whether the interpretation holds up.
Leadership and influence
Work through a program challenge, explore possible approaches, or begin a clearer business case for a social impact initiative. A 30-day implementation exercise helps you decide what to try next.
Responsible AI
Check privacy, consent, bias, data security, and accessibility before applying an approach. Include nonprofit and grantee perspectives, and keep human judgment accountable for decisions.
People are still the reason we gather.
Social REV LIVE is about the relationships we build, the assumptions we're willing to question, and the communities we're accountable to. AI is one tool we'll explore to do that work more thoughtfully. It should help us ask better questions and strengthen relationships—not replace the people whose knowledge matters most. Community voice, shared authority, and human judgment remain central.
We'd love to have you with us.
Bring the questions you've been meaning to work through.
