5 Key Tips for AI + Impact Writing

Tired of staring at blank screens while deadlines loom? PCDN's upcoming Writing for Impact Workshop changes that: https://pcdn.global/write-better-work-smarter-practical-ai-skills-for-impact-professionals/

Hands-on sessions teach you to use AI smartly for job apps, proposals, research—customizing to slash 80-90% of your time. Build custom projects (this is where the real work is and the best results), PTs (personalized templates), workflows that fit your voice. Ethics baked in. Join solo or via Career Campus for jobs, community, more.

Tip 1: Master Top Tools

Tip 2: Craft Amazing Prompts

Specific wins: "Rewrite this impact report intro for funders—short sentences, my direct tone, equity focus." Chain from brainstorm to draft.

Tip 3: Experiment with Custom Builds

Build PTs for grants, emails, newsletters. Chain tools—one for ideas, one for edits. Workshop demos it all. We will do this in the Career Campus workshop.

Tip 4: Know When Human is Better

AI speeds reps. But often faster and better human-first. Save it for drafts—keep your stories, passion alive.
