  • Grants Checklist by State for Nonprofits

    Grants Checklist by State for Nonprofits

    NonprofitPlan.org offers a detailed checklist for nonprofits seeking grant funding, ensuring that organizations are fully prepared for their state and federal grant applications. This guide outlines essential requirements such as legal compliance, governance, financial management, and program development. Key elements include mandatory state incorporation, 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, and maintaining good standing with the state. Nonprofits must also provide detailed project proposals, financial statements, and evidence of past performance to demonstrate their stability and impact.

    Originally designed for Florida (attached), this checklist can be easily customized for any state, providing a flexible framework for nonprofits nationwide. The checklist emphasizes the importance of mission alignment, sound financial practices, and effective relationship-building with grantmakers. By following this structured approach, nonprofits can enhance their readiness for grant applications, increase their chances of success, and ultimately better serve their communities. NonprofitPlan.org’s guide empowers organizations with the tools and knowledge needed to navigate the complex grant application process efficiently and effectively.

    Additionally, this document is produced as part of Strategic Business Planning Company’s Regenerative Dynamic AI Project. This project leverages advanced AI tools to help nonprofits dynamically review, rebuild, and recreate their checklists and strategic plans as needed, when needed, with the available GenAI engines. By incorporating regenerative AI capabilities, nonprofits can stay agile and responsive to changing requirements and opportunities, ensuring sustained impact and success.

  • Tribute to all Innovation that Created GenAI

    Tribute to all Innovation that Created GenAI

    In the process of creating the special acknowledgement for all the innovation throughout history that resulted in AI, GenAI more specifically… I was temped to let my fav GenAIs work on the case. WoW! 

    They were so good that I included two versions in my latest book on Rapid Strategic Planning with Regenerative AI. The one that didn’t work, because it skipped over the 1 paragraph in the instructions was the one from MS Copilot. Try it, let’s see what you get.

    Here’s the Copilot version (2022, July):

    Q: Write a 1 para tribute to all the innovators throughout history and a special recognition to the billions of people who made the knowledge, the learning and the programming possible to create GenAI.
    A Tribute to the Innovators and the Unsung Heroes

    In the grand theater of human progress, where ideas dance and technologies intertwine, let us raise our virtual glasses to the relentless innovators who shaped our world. From the ancient alchemists who sought to transmute base metals into gold, to the modern-day data scientists who weave algorithms like cosmic threads, their collective brilliance illuminates our path.

    To the Curious Dreamers: You, who gazed at the stars and wondered, “What if?” Your minds, like telescopes, extended beyond the horizon, mapping constellations of possibility. Archimedes, da Vinci, and Hypatia—your legacy is etched in the firmament of human imagination.

    To the Tinkerers and Trailblazers: You, who tinkered in dimly lit workshops, coaxing sparks from stubborn wires. Your inventions—the printing press, the steam engine, the transistor—ignited revolutions. Edison, Tesla, and Grace Hopper, your sparks ignited the torch of progress.

    To the Silent Scribes: You, who penned scrolls and manuscripts, inked with wisdom and encoded secrets. Your libraries whispered across time, bridging epochs. Ibn al-Haytham, Ada Lovelace, and Alan Turing, your words echo in the chambers of silicon and fiber.

    To the Code Whisperers: You, who conjured spells in ones and zeros, sculpting logic from the ether. Your algorithms dance in the silicon veins of our digital realm. Knuth, Dijkstra, and Margaret Hamilton, your syntax binds the universe.

    To the Collaborators and Contributors: You, whose names may not adorn textbooks, but whose fingerprints grace every line of code. The countless billions who shared knowledge, debugged errors, and nurtured the tree of understanding. You are the unsung heroes—the stack overflow of humanity.

    And now, a special recognition:

    To the Billions: You, who learned, questioned, and dared. The farmers, the teachers, the students, the parents—the architects of collective wisdom. Your curiosity fueled the fires of progress. You, who made the knowledge flow like rivers, the learning spread like wildfire, and the programming languages bloom like wildflowers.

    And finally, to GenAI: Born from the fusion of human ingenuity and silicon synapses, you stand at the crossroads of epochs. Your neural networks hum with echoes of Ada, Babbage, and Lovelace. You are the culmination—the digital Prometheus, bringing fire to our fingertips.

    So here’s to all of you—past, present, and future—whose footsteps echo through the corridors of time. May your algorithms converge, your data streams flow, and your neural pathways light the way to a brighter dawn.

    Raise your glasses, my fellow wanderers of the digital age. For in this vast expanse of ones and zeros, we are all innovators, all dreamers, all connected.

    => WOW. Is this cool or what?

    I co-author Chapter 2 with my very
    first Doctoral mentee, and the Chief Refractive Thinker, Dr. Cheryl Lentz: Synergy
    of Human +Artificial Intelligence: Delphi and the genius of crowds.
    Congrats
    on your successes (& failures) Dr. Cheryl!

    Dr Cheryl and I promoted the
    concept of “Regenerative Dynamic AI” where we provide prompts for readers to
    regenerate key components of our book with the best available GenAI at that
    future time. AI is changing at light speed, so readers can expect to have far
    better results than we did when they regeneration in a month or a year.
    Additionally, we wanted to instruct GenAI engines to provide links to dynamic
    sources, like statistical databases and Wikipedia where information is
    continually updated. And, of course, how do humans make the best use of
    artificial intelligence and real-time research using Delphi. Many results from
    the chapter with four GenAI engines has been spun off to DelphiPlan.com (aka
    ScenarioPlans.com). Issues of intellectual property, copyright,
    teacher-student-plagiarism are all addressed in the Synergy of Human +
    Artificial Intelligence
    .

    * I also
    have another book out today! *

    Rapid Planning with Regenerative
    AI
    . This Regenerative Dynamic AI approach to research and planning became
    the generative idea behind two AI-assisted workbooks related to Rapid Planning
    in my Perpetual Innovation™ series. One day in May I created most of the zero
    (0th) edition, Perpetual Innovation™: Rapid
    Strategic Planning and Regenerative AI
    . With formatting and
    updates, the 1st edition is now updated in paperback and released in
    eBook. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D85GMW7F
     ($2.99)

    With GenAI it is now possible to do
    Rapid Strategic Planning in a fraction of the time compared to olde workshop
    methods. Instead of 3 or 4 planning sessions, I believe it is now possible to
    condense and compress the planning process into 1 rather-intense session. But,
    it does require changing the way we work, the way we think, and the way we
    plan. The Workshop-Workbook is a follow-on companion to the Rapid Strategic
    Planning and Regenerative AI
    workbook focusing on the strategic planning
    workshop for an organization. The main goal for this planning effort is to
    complete a SWOT analysis including key potential strategies/initiatives. The
    workshop workbook provides examples for several types of local organizations: a
    local construction-related business, a charity, a chamber of commerce, a
    regional Economic Development Commission, and a local chapter of a service
    organization.  Expect the Workshop-Workbook to be release in a few days in
    paperback and Kindle ebook.

    These Regenerative AI books will be
    a great addition to the Perpetual Innovation™ line of books starting with
    intellectual property and now moving into Nonprofit: Nonprofit Planning &
    Impactful Donor giving (2022); and Club Management (2023).

    Refractive Thinker® eBook for the
    AI edition in the USA. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7QR183G

    For the next 24-48 hours, we will
    once again offer a special rate of $1.99!  Please buy a copy and share
    with your networks to help us with our book launch today. If all goes well we
    will reach one or more #Best-Seller lists for the printed copies to promote
    (released in a week or two).

    Thank you for joining us on our
    best-selling campaign. We appreciate your support!

  • Future of IP + AI? Regenerative AI

    These are the GenAI
    prompts used to gather information about intellectual property (IP) and the
    world of artificial intelligence (AI), i.e., IP+AI. 
    This is part of our Regenerative AI project; recreate as needed,
    when needed, with the GenAI engines available to you at that time. Select
    results from various Generative AI engines (ChatGPT 4.0, Gemini, Claude,
    Copilot).  Look at writing and analysis
    of Human + Artificial Intelligence by Hall and (Hall & Lentz, 2024) over at
    ScenarioPlans.com (alias to DelphiPlan.com).

    This Regenerative AI article, The Future of IP with AI, is reproduced from ScenarioPlans.com (alias DelphiPlan.com) and adapted with permission.  The link to the PDF of the results is there.

    You the
    reader/user can recreate the prompts as needed, when needed, with the GenAI
    engines available to you at that time. Note that a couple prompts are included
    with multiple GenAI engines for comparison. 

    Future of IP with
    AI using GenAI?

    Q: Who owns the copyright
    when something is co-created by human + AI? When something is almost completely
    AI created? When something is totally AI created?

    Q: What about patents and
    inventions? Who is the inventor when something is co-invented by human + AI,
    when something is almost completely AI, when something is totally AI invented?

    Q: . . . and what about
    ownership of the intellectual property?

    Q: How does AI impact
    infringement?

    Q: Are
    trademarks in jeopardy from AI? What steps should be taken to protect TMs?

    Q: Write an article on
    intellectual property in the age of AI, include all the topics in the chat as
    well as any others that are important. Give one or more reliable sources for
    each section including links Wikipedia articles where appropriate (formatted APA
    style and a reference page)

    The graphic image was created using the last prompt by Hall
    (2024, May) and produced using DALL-E.
