Online Webinar

GovCon teams are leaning on tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity to speed up business development and proposals. These tools are genuinely useful for research, data analysis, and content generation—but none of them was built to help you win federal work.
In this session, we'll put the leading AI tools to the test with a live demonstration on real GovCon growth tasks—triaging opportunities, analyzing solicitations, and drafting proposal content. You'll see where they shine, where they fall short, and what changes when the same underlying AI models are put to work inside a purpose-built platform for finding opportunities, managing relationships, and writing proposals.
Learning Objectives: · See how ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity actually perform on common capture and proposal tasks—side by side. · Understand where generic AI breaks down across capture, pipeline, and proposal workflows. · Learn why connecting your opportunity data, past performance, relationships, and pipeline is what lets teams qualify faster, make sharper pursuit decisions, and accelerate proposals.

The National Leverage Lab 2026, presented by The Fair Path Project, brings a full day of practical strategy on workplace accountability to Washington, DC on Friday, August 28. The summit runs in person at the Friends Meeting of Washington near Dupont Circle, with a virtual option for those joining from afar.
Headlining the Lab is Gretchen Carlson, the former broadcast journalist portrayed by Nicole Kidman in the 2019 film Bombshell. She takes the keynote stage alongside Julie Roginsky, her co-founder at Lift Our Voices, the nonprofit whose advocacy helped end forced arbitration of sexual assault and harassment claims under federal law. Together they have reshaped the national conversation on how workers can speak up without being silenced.
Beyond the keynote, attendees choose from three concurrent tracks built for employees, HR professionals, and attorneys, with continuing education credits available (CLE, HRCI, and SHRM). Expect real tools, real cases, and a room full of people committed to fairer workplaces.
