SUMMARY:The 3 Shifts of AI for Associations
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nAI is reshaping how associations discover solutions\, engage members\, and deliver value. Yet most leaders are still asking where to start. \nIn this fast-moving and thought-provoking session\, Sandra Nam introduces The 3 Shifts of AI for Associations\, a clear framework that helps executives understand how AI is transforming the work of associations today. From search to discovery\, content to conversations\, and transactions to trusted agents\, you will learn how to navigate these changes with confidence and vision. \nDrawing on real examples from across the industry\, Sandra connects innovation\, leadership\, and practical next steps that any association can take now\, without the need for technical expertise. \nWhat you will learn: \n1. How to recognize and lead the three major AI shifts affecting associations \n2. Ways to apply AI to strengthen engagement\, sponsorship\, and member value \n4. A roadmap for evaluating\, experimenting with\, and communicating AI initiatives within your organization \nJoin this session to cut through the noise\, understand what is coming next\, and gain the insight to lead your association’s AI journey with clarity and purpose. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \nExplain the three major shifts in how AI is transforming associations and their approach to member and industry engagement. \nIdentify practical applications of AI that strengthen discovery\, communication\, and sponsorship opportunities within associations. \nDevelop confidence to begin experimenting with AI in ways that align with their association’s mission\, culture\, and capacity for innovation. \n  \nTo Watch this Webinar on the Media Library CLICK HERE!

SUMMARY:AI Isn’t Built for AMS Selection Decisions. Here’s Why (and What Works Instead)
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nThere are some things AI can do\, and other things…not so much.  AI can draft RFPs\, summarize demos\, and analyze notes\, but it can’t understand your members\, your workflows\, or your culture well enough to pick a new AMS for you. In this session\, we’ll separate where AI helps from where human judgment is non-negotiable. \nYou’ll learn a modern\, practical approach to AMS selection that leads with strategy (not feature lists)\, compares vendors apples-to-apples\, and earns real buy-in across teams and leadership. We’ll also show how to blend research and expertise so you make a confident decision that works for staff\, members\, and the next 3–5 years. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \nDesign AMS selection criteria aligned to organizational strategy\, member outcomes\, and critical staff workflows\, not just feature checklists. \nApply a “fit over popularity” evaluation framework to separate real requirements from market hype and shiny objects. \nIdentify the right stakeholders (executive sponsor\, project lead\, cross-functional SMEs\, key volunteers) and define clear roles and decision rights. \nDevelop a post-selection plan that favors configuration over heavy customization and addresses adoption\, training\, and roadmap milestones beyond go-live. \n  \nTo Watch this Webinar on the Media Library CLICK HERE!
