Most leadership teams are watching AI happen.
Yours can lead it.
The challenge isn't that your leaders don't believe in AI. It's that belief hasn't translated into shared strategy, shared language, or shared capability.
Pockets of experimentation exist; alignment doesn't. Generic training makes it worse. Off-the-shelf courses teach individuals to use tools. They don't build the organizational cohesion to act on them.
Your leadership team needs to develop AI capability together on your real priorities, in your real context, with the frameworks to lead the change across your organization.
That's what this program is built for.
What your leadership team walks away with
Alignment, capability, and a roadmap. In three weeks.
This is not a certification program with a badge at the end. Every component is designed to produce something your organization can act on immediately.
A shared AI strategy
Your leadership team leaves aligned on where AI creates the most value for your organization and how to prioritize it.
Working AI solutions
Each leader builds at least five AI assistants integrated into their real workflows, demonstrated at the capstone Demo Day.
AI fluency at the top
Leaders earn a verifiable AI Leader credential recognized across industries. More importantly, they know how to use it.
A 12-month roadmap
The closing workshop, held 4 to 8 weeks post-cohort, produces a rollout plan with 3, 6, and 12-month milestones.
Change lead language
Your executive team develops shared frameworks for evaluating AI opportunities, managing risk, and communicating strategy internally.
Immediate ROI
Most participants report saving hours within the first week.
Time savings can be tracked against a baseline set at kickoff.
The AI program designed for busy executives.
Week 1: Foundation & Strategy
Mindset shifts for AI-era leadership, comparing leading models, and establishing your organization's AI use case portfolio.
Leaders start applying AI to real work from day one.
Week 2:
Build Your AI Team
Create a suite of AI assistants tailored to your role, your team's priorities, and your company-approved tools.
Daily exercises run on your actual work, not hypotheticals.
Week 3:
Demo Day
& Certification
Each leader demos one of five working AI solutions to the cohort.
Peer feedback and expert coaching sharpen the implementations.
Verified AI Leader credential awarded.
Closing Workshop:
Strategic Roadmap Session
Leaders review what they've implemented, share results across the team, and co-create a 3, 6, and 12-month AI rollout plan for the organization.
This is what turns individual capability into organizational strategy.
Delivery Model Tailored to Your Goals
The program helps your team learn AI and apply it to your goals at work.
Meet Your Facilitators
Daan van Rossum is the co-founder & CEO of Lead with AI, where he helps leaders turn AI from buzzword into day-to-day practice.

Pull on one and the others move. He writes about this weekly in The Workline, a newsletter for leaders navigating modern work transformation. Prior to launching his advisory business, Phil held workplace experience leadership roles at McKinsey, WeWork, JLL, and Credit Suisse.

“Before working with Lead with AI, we were already convinced that AI needed to be part of our fabric and future. We had pockets of experimentation, but struggled with how to embed it into the DNA of the company. The workshop changed that in a single day. Our leadership team gained a sharp understanding of what AI can mean for our business, and we walked away with a concrete portfolio of twelve high-impact projects, from quick wins to long-term bets. Most importantly, we aligned as a team, signed a charter, and committed together to making AI core to how we operate - resulting in a roadmap we believe will future-proof our company.”

Turning Complexity Into Clarity: AI Explained with Impact
Daan recently delivered a briefing on What's Next & What's Best in AI to NordCham members, comprising widely different levels of AI-literacy. Yet Daan, with his unique gift for storytelling and his empathic ability to read an audience, managed to set off lightbulbs in every corner of that room.
No one left Daan’s presentation in any doubt that AI could unlock vast untapped potential for themselves and their organisations. Moreover, they were, thanks to Daan's infectious enthusiasm, visibly motivated to get started on it right away.
A game-changer for our client event.
Daan's AI talk was a game-changer for our event.
His energy and enthusiasm left our attendees feeling inspired, sparking engaging conversations and questions long after the session ended.
The feedback from our customers was overwhelmingly positive. If you're looking for a speaker, workshop host, or trainer around AI, I recommend Daan.
Working with Lead with AI has been a great experience with strong impact. They built customized AI programs for our Leadership, People, Finance, and Marketing teams, and helped us shape an AI prioritization approach to support to our 2026 business priorities.Our teams created over 50 AI agents now used in daily workflows, already significantly improving productivity in certain processes.
If you need a partner who drives rapid capability building and measurable results, in a very practical/applied manner, I highly recommend Lead with AI.
"Lead with AI is running two campaigns to upskill our Senior Leadership Team and our AI Champions. Daan has a rare ability to meet people where they are, bringing energy and clarity without hype.
By translating complex AI concepts into day-to-day roles, he consistently turns scepticism into informed curiosity. More importantly, he helps leaders make the “aha” leap: not just understanding AI in theory, but experiencing how accessible and practical it can be.
The breakthrough comes when people realise how easily they can build simple AI assistants that remove everyday toil. Once that clicks, confidence follows, along with a steady flow of ideas for broader, more strategic applications."
