You Don’t Need to Be an AI Expert — Just Ready to Lead

About

Hi, I am Robert van der Zwart, Public Speaker

Let’s face it — most business leaders feel unsure about where AI fits into their company.
You know it matters. You want to stay ahead. But how do you actually begin?

That’s where I come in. I help leadership teams in mid-sized companies turn confusion into clarity. Whether through a keynote or a hands-on workshop, I’ll show you how AI can boost efficiency, spark innovation, and give you a serious edge — all without drowning in tech talk.

If you're thinking:

“We should probably do something with AI... but what?”
You’re not alone. I work with companies in industries like pharma, manufacturing, and professional services — smart teams with real ambition, but also real questions.


Questions like:

  • How do we use AI to scale our business?

  • What tools do we actually need?

  • How do we bring our people along on this journey?

Together, we’ll answer those questions — and turn uncertainty into a plan.

 

What I do

I speak at events, lead workshops, and help leadership teams get a grip on AI strategy.

  • Keynotes that inspire action, not anxiety

  • Workshops that turn your team into AI thinkers

  • Custom sessions tailored to your business goals

The goal? More efficiency, more innovation, and a clear path forward.

How it works

Step 1 – Book a call. We’ll talk about your business and where you want to go.

Step 2 – I’ll create something just for you: A talk, a workshop, a team session — whatever makes the most impact.

Step 3 – We roll it out together. You get clarity, confidence, and a real plan to start using AI where it counts.

What happens after?

Your team gets

You’re not chasing AI headlines anymore — you’re leading the charge. You’ll have a clear sense of what to do next, and how AI fits into your growth strategy. You’ll feel what so many of my clients feel after we work together:
"This isn’t as hard as we thought. And the results? Way better than we imagined."

‘’Roberts passion for public speaking shined throughout the training with a lot of energy, engagement and informative concepts.

I left the training understanding better why certain ‘’common’’ things were the way they were.

Robert used a lot of relevant real-life business examples, tips & helped our team  breakdown concepts into their core for easy practical application & recollection.

Thank you Robert!’’

Robert delivered a very inspiring and practical lecture to 55 ENT doctors on how to give a good presentation and how to convey your message to your audience best. His lecture was captivating and very useful in daily practice. The audience was very enthusiastic.

In short... Highly recommended

We worked with Robert on our bi annual Round Table session, this time on the them of AI. Robert delivered an inspiring key note on the ins and outs of AI and, more importantly, gave us some practical advice and tools on how to use AI in different lines of business. Thank you Robert!

I can maximally recommend Robert van der Zwart to bring speakers in the research domain to a much higher level. After the short and intensive course the speakers can bring their research message in a concise and structured presentation and pitch. Robert van der Zwart has in 2022 and 2023 given speakers training sessions to 50 researchers in my Imaging and Oncology division. First for the researchers at a professorship level, next to researchers at an associate and assistant professorship level and in a third round to PhD students. All three mini-courses were a major success and have resulted in direct results at conferences and have also resulted in social media attention with research pitches at a very high level (structure and clarity).
