About the Course

Are you wondering how to harness the power of AI without sacrificing your organization's soul? In a world of automated text, authenticity wins. This bootcamp shows you how to lead with integrity, using AI as a tool to amplify your unique voice, not replace it. Learn to craft inclusive narratives, mitigate bias, and build proposals that are as ethical as they are effective. Join us and become a leader in responsible innovation for stronger impact. You will leave this course with a "library of over 25 field-tested prompts and a list of over 15+ Tools" We move beyond basic questions to teach the art of strategic prompt engineering. The key is to provide the AI with a clear role, deep context, specific constraints, and a defined goal. Time: All Classes will be at 1PM EDT unless otherwise noted. We will try to do a couple of live catch ups with participants in the community outside of reasonable time zones. New Pricing!
