Zach Giglio is a keynote speaker and business leader who helps organizations turn AI interest into everyday practice. His perspective comes from working directly with the people adopting it, understanding their challenges, testing practical applications, and helping teams build the confidence to use AI in their work.
As CEO and co-founder of GCM, an award-winning AI implementation and training company, Zach works alongside leaders and employees to connect AI adoption to business priorities. That ongoing work shapes his keynotes, bringing audiences firsthand lessons about what works, what gets in the way, and how to move forward. His work takes him from strategy conversations with executive teams to hands-on AI sessions with employees in construction-site trailers.
His message starts with a simple idea: you are the expert in what you do. Zach shows audiences how to bring that expertise to their use of AI, with clear explanations, relevant examples, and practical next steps.
Zach has spoken to thousands of professionals across more than 33 states, with appearances at national conferences for Associated General Contractors of America, Associated Builders and Contractors, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's Institute for Organization Management. Known for his energy, clarity, and ability to connect with a room, he translates one of today's most consequential business shifts into a compelling, actionable vision leaders and their teams can move forward together.
Zach prepares each engagement around the audience’s industry, responsibilities, and challenges. Preparation can include conversations with organizers and audience representatives to make the examples relevant. Optional workshops and live problem-solving sessions give participants time to work through their own questions.
