Learn AI: books, podcasts, training and resources

Discover the books by Steff VanHaverbeke (Finally Superpowers, Being Replaced, Build Bot Brains), podcasts, workshops and open-source AI tools.

Everything I have learned about thriving in the age of AI, in one place.

I write, teach and build, because ideas that help people deal with change deserve more than one workshop or one social media post. Below you will find books you can read at your own pace, podcasts where we dive deep into specific topics, workshops you can bring to your team, and open-source tools you can use right away.

Books

Finally, Superpowers! (2026)

AI gives you speed. The trap is living like a machine.

The superpowers are real. One person can now do what used to require a whole team. But this much leverage has a downside: it rewires your attention, it blurs your boundaries and it tempts you to outsource the exact thinking that makes your judgement strong.

Finally, Superpowers! is for professionals who want to use the full potential of AI without losing what makes them irreplaceable. The book covers the Superworker Model, the shift from tasks to workflows that you manage via agents, and the discipline to stay human when the machine wants you to keep up.

Being Replaced: The Five Human Skills AI Can't Automate (2025)

Stop competing with machines. Start doing what only you can do.

This is where it all started. Being Replaced introduces the Cognitive Agility Framework: five capabilities that create visible value when everything else is optimised by machines. Flexible thinking, emotional intelligence, collaborative intelligence, intuition and innovation.

Not just another AI hype book. A sober look at what makes humans irreplaceable, based on neuroscience and tested in real organisations. Also available in Dutch as Vervangen Worden.

"I thought it would be just another AI book. In the end, it is more about me than about machines." (Julien Mercier, entrepreneur, Lyon)

The sticky note that changed everything.

A practical guide for anyone who uses AI tools and is tired of mediocre results. Build Bot Brains teaches you the CRAFTER SuperPrompt Framework: a systematic method to brief AI, so that unpredictable output turns into reliable collaboration.

With a four-week mastery programme, practical examples and templates you can use right away. Works with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any AI platform.

"I went from random prompts to a method I can teach my team." (Lars A.)

Game On! How Great Leaders Turn Pressure Into Play (2024)

Co-written with Karl Mortier.

Leadership is not a fight to win or a performance to perfect. It is a game. Game On! explores the inner game (awareness, self-regulation, curiosity) and the outer game (arenas, roles, tactics) of facilitation and leadership.

For anyone who leads meetings, manages teams or guides change, and wants to do so with more confidence and less control.
