How Do You Relate to The Numbers You Collect in Your Nonprofit?With context and behavioral shifts.Here are 4 examples in which you can connect to our numbers using context and behavioral shifts:1. Look at front-line service data, like how many people answered the emails when first time someone entered your world – think about what those numbers mean? The question isn't just who responded to the emails. The real question is what you need behaviorally and culturally to quickly and humanly respond to the emails of those who need your nonprofit's services.2. Look at inventory data, like how many other tools (physical or digital) you need to provide your services – start with thinking about how you can take the most advantage of all the tools you already have. Before signing up for new tools, evaluate how well you are utilizing what you already have for your goals for the year.3. Look at social media followers and connections you are inviting on your page – think about what those numbers could mean with a continuous engagement effort rather than only maintaining the social media page.4. Look at the program impact you made this month – think about the meaningful partnerships you made - with program participants, volunteers, donors, and for-profit value-aligned agencies. Look at the context of why these individuals and groups are associated with your mission, and you can find the reasons for engaging them with care in the long run.Join me as an individual or reach out for your staff-level collective workshop on advancing equity in data collection.𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬 on rolling basis.

Why Should Algorithms Center Humans?Algorithms should center humans because humans are the ultimate users and decision-makers of the technology. Therefore, the design and development of algorithms should consider the impact that the technology will have on people, both in terms of benefits and potential harms.Centering humans means taking into account the ethical, social, and economic implications of the technology, and ensuring that it is designed and used in ways that respect human rights, dignity, and autonomy.Additionally, centering humans means ensuring that the algorithm is inclusive, and does not perpetuate bias or discrimination against certain groups of people. It also means that the algorithm should be transparent and explainable, so that people can understand how it works and how decisions are being made.Join me for the workshop to learn how can we move towards human-centric AI.𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬 on rolling basis.
