A New Year Begins - And we want to empower Leaders in the AI Era

Today marks the first day of 2025—a perfect moment to launch an exciting entrepreneurship initiative!

I am proud to introduce The AI Enthusiast, a project built on over a decade of dedication to sharing knowledge and empowering professionals worldwide.

Together with my wife, Malgorzata, who brings a wealth of experience in customer success management as our Customer Excellence Partner, we’ve created a platform that embodies our commitment to helping others learn and grow in the transformative AI era. Drawing from my global perspective and multicultural background, we aim to infuse this initiative with diversity, international connections, and fresh viewpoints. Much like my previous endeavors, such as being a followed author, a keynote presenter, and a passionate volunteer, this initiative is being built alongside my enterprise career. It reflects a belief that both worlds—corporate and entrepreneurial—complement each other, creating a dynamic balance where one fuels the passion and innovation of the other.

Over the years, I’ve grown a network of over 30,000 LinkedIn followers, over 3,000 Twitter followers, and a mailing list of over 6,000 subscribers on this LinkedIn Newsletter, The AI Enthusiast News. This journey reflects credibility and a consistent effort to provide valuable content and inspire professionals globally. AI is not just a tool—it’s a way to empower people to lead, innovate, and shape the future.

At The AI Enthusiast website, thoughtfully designed to offer cutting-edge AI products and services, you’ll discover an unmatched selection of tools and programs tailored to help professionals thrive in the AI era.

• Visionary AI Leadership Training: We want to empower leaders to harness the transformative power of AI; the exclusive programs integrate strategic innovation, change management, customer experience, and leadership empowerment to drive operational excellence and inspire impactful decision-making in AI-driven initiatives.
• The AI Evolution Academy - We want to help leaders build their pathway to mastering artificial intelligence through dynamic workshops and self-paced courses tailored for SMEs, non-profits (yes. for free...), and education leaders. We want them to learn how to seamlessly adopt AI, craft effective prompts, and harness generative AI to revolutionize operations, customer engagement, and innovation in their field.
• The AI Insider Vault: We will provide an all-access pass to exclusive insights, tools, and templates designed for professionals who aspire to lead and innovate in the AI era. Whether you explore generative AI applications, master prompt engineering, or strategize AI integration, this hub will empower everyone with actionable knowledge, cutting-edge resources, and a vibrant community of thought leaders to transform their professional journey.
• Ebooks and Whitepapers: We want to share expertly crafted resources that demystify AI and leadership strategies, making them accessible, actionable, and transformative for professionals across industries looking to drive business growth, enhance multilingual communication, or explore generative AI applications. We believe these resources can empower everyone with practical insights and proven strategies for excelling in the AI era.
• Business Communication for AI Professionals: We want to equip AI practitioners with the essential skills to translate complex data into impactful narratives, enabling effective leadership and fostering meaningful collaboration across diverse teams and stakeholders.

We will soon add new products and services to our portfolio, such as the?Ethical Intelligence Advisor, a specialized consulting service dedicated to ensuring responsible and compliant AI adoption.

We have been quietly sharing the previews of this platform with a select group of colleagues, business leaders, executives, and professionals from various countries. The feedback and suggestions we have received have been overwhelmingly positive. It is truly exciting and energizing to witness their genuine enthusiasm and support for our initiative.

Many have expressed their eagerness for what we are developing, highlighting its potential to make a significant impact in our industry. Their openness to our ideas has not only validated our vision but has also inspired us to strive for greater excellence in our project. We are thrilled to continue this journey with such encouraging endorsements from these influential individuals.

As we gear up to launch our inaugural training program, we're thrilled to announce that we've invited respected leaders from various fields to be among the first to purchase, complete, and review our course.

This program, "A Gentle Introduction to Artificial Intelligence for Leaders," is explicitly designed to equip leaders with the essential AI knowledge and tools needed to drive growth, improve decision-making, and develop strategic foresight.

Our course aims to demystify AI, making it approachable for leaders who may not have a technical background yet see its immense potential. We incorporate real-world applications, industry trends, and insights from AI pioneers, concentrating on providing actionable knowledge tailored for leadership.

This comprehensive training is designed to prepare leaders for the future, cultivate innovation, and ensure that they do not just react to change but actively drive it forward.

Our mission is simple: To help more people embrace AI confidently, lead effectively, and grow their skills in ways that empower meaningful leadership in the AI era.

This initiative is based on the belief that learning is a journey best shared. As we launch this platform, we bring together years of expertise, a global perspective, and a deep commitment to helping others unlock their potential. With a blend of leadership, innovation, and a passion for sharing knowledge and building skills, we believe this is an opportunity to connect, grow, and thrive together.
