This presentation will discuss the changing definition of generosity, shedding light on the unprecedented competition for connection facing modern nonprofit organizations.  To this end, nonprofits must develop a renewed appreciation for connection and learn to leverage technology, such as Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, once only used by for-profit organizations.  Using current data and analysis, attendees will learn the importance of measuring and prioritizing connection as well as how AI methods have evolved to help them to work smarter, not harder to overcome the competition for connection.
