In the run up to Rally’s 5th birthday we asked friends, clients and partners to fill in a short survey to help us figure out how we’re doing and how we’re perceived.
One of the questions was ‘How would you describe Rally in FIVE words or a SHORT sentence?’
Because we’re all AI experts now, we decided to put ChatGPT to work to figure out what it all meant.
The results follow.
PROMPT: I asked 30 people to describe Rally and these are the words they used.

Can you describe Rally based on these inputs in a short, punchy paragraph?
It came up with the following, which is a bit ick but not awful. (NB, we won’t be using it)
‘Rally is a fierce, feminist, and unapologetically honest ally in the world of social change. They're a collaborative, innovative, and digital-savvy force, connecting people, disrupting the norm, and driving real impact. Rally champions progress, fearlessly challenges the status quo, and empowers genuine world-changers to get things done. With their passion, expertise, and relentless dedication, Rally is the burning torch lighting the way for positive change, a unique and bold game-changer in the world of activism and innovation.’
PROMPT: Can you now describe the types of organisations Rally wouldn’t get on with?
Rally's values and characteristics suggest that they would likely have an unfavourable view of organisations that are:
1. Inauthentic: Rally values authenticity and would likely disapprove of organisations that engage in greenwashing, performative activism, or insincere corporate social responsibility efforts.
2. Uncooperative: Given their collaborative and people-powered approach, Rally may be critical of organisations that resist cooperation, dialogue, or engagement with their communities, stakeholders, or the broader social change movement.
3. Apathetic or Inactive: Rally is characterised by its proactive and action-oriented nature, so they may not have a favourable opinion of organisations that are complacent, slow to adapt, or indifferent to pressing social issues.
4. Oppressive or Discriminatory: With their feminist and progressive values, Rally would likely oppose organisations that perpetuate discrimination, inequality, or systemic injustice.
5. Obscured by Bureaucracy: Rally's "no-nonsense" and digital-first approach suggests they might be frustrated with organisations that are overly bureaucratic, slow to embrace digital innovation, or resistant to change.
6. Insincere World-Changers: Rally seems to admire genuine, impactful world-changers and may have a negative view of organisations that claim to be making a difference but lack tangible results or authenticity.
In summary, Rally would likely be critical of organisations that are disingenuous, resistant to change, uncooperative, apathetic, discriminatory, bureaucratic, or ineffective in their social impact efforts.
Nailed it.
Well done ChatGPT.
