SUMMARY:Loudoun Nonprofit Academy Workshop: A Practical AI Session for Nonp
 rofit Teams
DESCRIPTION:What Slipped This Week: A Practical AI Session for Nonprofit Te
 ams\n\n\nSomething fell through this week. A donor who went quiet. A decis
 ion that got raised again because nobody wrote down what you settled last 
 time. A report you meant to pull. A conversation you have now had four tim
 es.\n\nNone of it is a crisis. That is exactly why it keeps happening. The
  steady\, invisible movement of a week away from the shape you meant it to
  have is what this session calls the Drift\, and most teams do not catch i
 t until something breaks.\n\nThis working session names the four places dr
 ift shows up: decisions\, capacity\, people\, and patterns. Participants t
 hen learn the Friday Four\, a four-question ritual that uses AI as a think
 ing partner to catch the slip while it is still small. The session covers 
 what to actually do with AI\, what to keep it away from\, and how to build
  the habit in thirty minutes a week without adding another tool to maintai
 n.\n\nParticipants will work with their own real examples in the room.\n\n
 What you will walk away with:\n\n 	The four places work slips\, and how to
  spot it in your own week\n 	The Friday Four prompt set\, tested live on y
 our own work\n 	A practical line for what AI should and should not touch i
 n a small shop\n 	A thirty-minute ritual you can start this Friday with no
  new software\n\n\nIntended Audience: Best fit for executive directors\, d
 evelopment directors\, operations staff\, and anyone responsible for keepi
 ng a small team's work from slipping. Board members are welcome\, though t
 he exercises are built for people inside day to day.\n\nNote: This is a wo
 rking session. Participants should bring a laptop or tablet. A phone will 
 work but is harder for prompt exercises.\n\nPresented by Erin Peshoff\, Fo
 under\, Vivid Operational Advisors\n\nErin Peshoff is the Founder of Vivid
  Operational Advisors\, a Leesburg firm that works with nonprofits whose a
 mbition has outpaced their systems. She spent 28 years raising money befor
 e she started building the systems underneath it\, which is why she reads 
 these problems differently. A database nobody trusts is a donor retention 
 problem. A process that lives in one person's head is a burnout problem. H
 er method\, the Editor-Architect Framework\, starts by removing what is in
  the way rather than adding something new. She holds a Master of Education
  from The College of William and Mary\, a Bachelor of Arts from Marquette 
 University\, and a Certificate of Applied Positive Psychology from The Flo
 urishing Center.
