AI4PI AWARD
Position yourself as a trailblazer by showcasing how you're using AI to enhance human performance—underpinned by ISPI’s rigorous, human-centered AI4PI Framework.
Overview
The First Award Recognizing Excellence in AI for Performance Improvement
The AI4PI (Artificial Intelligence for Performance Improvement) Award is a distinct recognition that honors cutting-edge projects and initiatives leveraging artificial intelligence to achieve significant advancements in human performance and organizational success.
Unlike the Human Performance Intervention Award, which focuses on traditional performance improvement strategies and interventions, the Artificial Intelligence for Performance Improvement Award specifically celebrates the innovative application of AI technologies to drive measurable and sustainable human performance outcomes.
This award honors an AI4PI project that enables individuals or organizations to achieve excellence in performance improvement.
What is the AI4PI Award?
The AI4PI Award is the first award of its kind recognizing innovative, ethical, and effective applications of AI in advancing human and organizational performance.
Whether you are streamlining workflows, enhancing decision-making, enabling rapid skill development, or transforming data into actionable insights, this award honors those leading the way in using AI to improve results that matter.
This new Award recognizes AI4PI projects such as:
- Technology Focus and Human-AI Collaboration: While the Human Performance Intervention Award recognizes excellence in a broad range of performance improvement interventions, the Artificial Intelligence for Performance Improvement award is specifically dedicated to projects that incorporate AI as a core element of the solution. This award seeks to highlight how AI is transforming the landscape of performance improvement.
- Innovation in AI Integration: The Artificial Intelligence for Performance Improvement award emphasizes the creative and effective integration of AI into performance improvement practices, where AI is not just an enhancement but a fundamental driver of the project’s success. This contrasts with the broader scope of the Human Performance Intervention Award, which may recognize non-technology-based interventions.
- At the Crossroad of AI and PI: Solutions and projects considered for the Artificial Intelligence for Performance Improvement award are positioned at the intersection of the AI and Human Performance Improvement disciplines
Why ISPI?
The International Society for Performance Improvement (ISPI) has been a global leader in advancing human performance for over 60 years.
Now, ISPI is once again at the forefront by establishing the AI4PI Award, reflecting its commitment to leading innovation in the performance improvement field, promoting responsible AI practices, and supporting professionals and organizations ready to transform the future.
Why It Matters
