Beyond the Pilot Trap: What Impact Organizations Really Need to Thrive in the AI Revolution
AI is reshaping the world — but how can mission-driven organizations move beyond one-off pilots and truly harness its potential?
Join Mara Puacz and Jacek Siadkowski from TTTR (Tech To The Rescue) for an honest, action-oriented conversation about what it really takes for social impact organizations to become AI-native.
Drawing on insights from TTTR’s AI for Changemakers program, this session dives into:
Why so many organizations get stuck in the "pilot trap"
The leadership mindset and operational shifts required for true transformation
Common blockers — and unexpected accelerators — on the path to AI adoption
This is not a technical how-to. It's a space for practitioners, leaders, and changemakers to share experiences, swap strategies, and rethink what's possible when purpose-driven orgs embrace AI at their core.
Whether you're just beginning your AI journey or deep in experimentation, you’ll leave with fresh perspectives, real-world lessons, and a clearer sense of what it takes to lead lasting change in the age of AI.
