This episode of ASAE Technology Professional Advisory Council (TPAC) explores why AI momentum is stalling across associations — and why the root cause isn’t technology, but hesitation. Rather than focusing on tools or platforms, this conversation digs into the human, strategic, and governance conversations leaders often avoid, including staffing impacts, data privacy, bias, board readiness, and risk tolerance. 

Hosted by Laura Graham, Senior Solutions Consultant at Results Direct, this episode features 2 of the authors of The Association Leader’s Practical Guide to AI Conversations That Matter  -Alex Mouw, Executive Advisor for Nonprofits at Amazon Web Services and Chair of the ASAE Technology Council, alongside Tori Miller-Liu, President and CEO of Association for Intelligent Information Management. Together, they share practical guidance for association leaders looking to move forward with AI — without waiting for perfect answers or unanimous agreement. 

This podcast is part of a series hosted by the ASAE Technology Professionals Advisory Council.
