Lead with AI | AI Leader Advanced (original) (raw)
Taught by operators who have led real transformation
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. A LinkedIn Top Voice featured across major business outlets, he has coached over 1,000 leaders from companies like Apple, Amazon, and L’Oréal on applying AI in real work contexts. His focus is on translating complex ideas into simple, practical actions that teams can actually implement.
Henrik, co-founder & Managing Director, Europe of Lead with AI, spent 20+ years inside some of the world's most complex organizations. First as a strategy consultant, then running large-scale global operations. He sees AI not as a tool to evaluate, but as the thing that finally lets leaders operate the way they've always intended to. Before teaching that shift, he made it himself as a student in Lead with AI's own executive program. Most recently, he led strategy for Sodexo's 65,000-person, 18-country operation across Europe.
Phil has spent 20+ years figuring out why work breaks down, and what to do about it. He sees work as a system: the technical choices, the spatial ones, and the behavioral ones all connect. 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. His background in computer science helps him test and teach new tools quickly.
From using AI to working differently in two weeks
Think like an AI-native leader
Build the judgment to know which model to use, what to delegate, where to keep human oversight, and how to challenge AI’s output instead of accepting it.
Redesign the work, not just the prompt
Identify the tasks, decisions, and recurring workflows where AI can change the way work gets done, not merely help you complete the same work faster.
Build an AI team around your real role
Leave with six reusable assistants, agents, and workflows that are pre-briefed on your context and save you real time.

Real results from real leaders
Hear from executives, operators, educators, and advisors who used Lead with AI programs to redesign workflows, build assistants, and bring practical AI adoption into their organizations.
Built for busy professional learners
"I've taken lots of online courses on AI and other topics, and what sets your course apart by far is: Lexi to produce individually tailored homework prompts; an almost-daily, scaffolded series of homework assignments that can be done in ~30 minutes; the accessibility of the teachers for feedback, help, and encouragement; and the learning community with fellow cohort members. You all clearly know learning design and busy professional learners like few others I've found."
Bryn Austin
Professor & Interim Co-Chair, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health
Immediate ROI while still taking the course
"Lead with AI is quite possibly the best course I have ever taken, across both professional qualifications and university education. The course was immediately practical. I saw a return on investment while still taking it; saving time, improving workflows, and learning to use AI tools I would never have found on my own."

Business Owner, United Kingdom
A framework before touching the tools
"What it gave me was not just a toolkit. It gave me a framework for thinking about AI before touching it; how to get clarity on what you actually want to build, which problems you are trying to solve, and which tools are worth your attention."
LR
Dr. Lakshmi Ramachandran
Executive Coach & Keynote Speaker; Faculty, Harvard Business Review
Non-technical leaders built real assistants
"I watched non-technical leaders build assistants for web page QA, leadership assessment, client onboarding, marketing pitch review, sales call retrospectives, podcast analysis, policy triage, and 3D video generation. All from self-proclaimed, non-technical leaders across industries. In just two weeks."

Phil Kirschner
Transformation Partner, Lead with AI; ex-McKinsey, WeWork, JLL
A working AI team for real work
"I now effectively have a team of AI assistants helping me work more efficiently, as well as a sparring partner for important initiatives, helping me challenge assumptions and spot blind spots. I came back for a second time because things are moving too quickly to treat AI learning as a one-time event."

Erick Razon
Global Senior Marketing Manager, Freudenberg Home and Cleaning Solutions
The peer group makes AI click faster
"AI only clicks when it becomes part of your daily work. Why this works: 30 minutes a day, 10 days, practical no-fluff use cases, and you build AI assistants you actually use. The biggest unlock was seeing how others were applying AI in their work."
EH
Earl Hoeg
Founder, PeopleFirst; 25+ years of executive leadership
Solved work that had been stuck for months
"I used AI to solve a complex Excel data task I'd been stuck on for months. It is the most time-saving result I've ever achieved."

A different operating model
"It's a game changer. Totally. We will not have to build such a large organization. We can stay very slim, work with agents..."
Saving 8 hours a week of manual work
"During the course, we built an assistant for our finance team and one person is now saving 8 hours a week of manual work."
Adrian McDonald
CEO, Epicenter
A strategic foundation for AI leaders
"I really appreciated the Lead with AI - AI Leader Advanced training course and certification. It was mind-blowing and I found it highly valuable, especially for executives and leaders like us who want to move beyond a general understanding of AI and develop a much stronger strategic and practical foundation as AI leaders and strategic advisors."

FAQs
When does the course take place?
AI Leader Advanced runs over three weeks, with a two-week core program and an optional third week for coaching and build time.
The next cohorts start on:
July 10th
August 7th
September 4th
What makes this program unique?
AI Leader Advanced is a personalized, cohort-based program that uses LeadOS, our proprietary AI operating system, to tailor every lesson, prompt, and exercise to your role, industry, and workflows.
Unlike generic AI courses with a fixed syllabus:
- You complete a 15-minute intake interview before day one
- You receive a custom AI leadership profile and role-specific prompt templates
- Every exercise and assistant build is personalized to your actual workflows
Cohorts are capped at 25 participants.
This is intentional: it keeps live sessions genuinely interactive, gives every participant direct access to coaches, and creates a peer group tight enough that people actually learn from each other. Graduates consistently call the cohort one of the highlights of the program.
The program has achieved a 94 NPS across cohorts including leaders from Google, Harvard, McKinsey, and PepsiCo, and a 100% success rate: every participant has deployed at least one working AI assistant by graduation.
My company uses Copilot, Gemini, Claude, or other AI tools. Does this program fit?
Yes. AI Leader Advanced is fully platform-agnostic.
Every lesson and demo covers ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Copilot in parallel. You follow the track that matches your company environment and build all assistants on your platform of choice:
- ChatGPT users build Custom GPTs and ChatGPT Projects
- Copilot users build Copilot Agents
- Gemini users build Gems
- Claude users build Claude Projects
Everything you build is directly usable in your day-to-day work, not just a theoretical exercise.
Yes. The program is designed for senior leaders with full schedules.
- 10 self-guided daily lessons, each approximately 30 minutes
- No live attendance required and all sessions are recorded
- Lessons can be batched or spread across the day as your calendar allows
- An optional third week provides extra coaching time and build support before graduation
The four Friday live sessions are included for those who want real-time coaching and community, but completing them is never a requirement to get full value from the program.
How do I access the course?
After purchase, you receive a Welcome email with an "Access your course" button linking directly to the course platform at member.leadwithai.co.
All lessons, exercises, demos, and recordings are hosted there throughout the program and remain accessible indefinitely after graduation.
