THE WORLD OF WORK IS CHANGING. YOUR LEADERSHIP MUST EVOLVE.​

You may have years of experience.

You may hold respected professional qualifications.

You may have successfully delivered complex projects and led high-performing teams.

But experience and qualifications alone do not guarantee continued relevance.

Artificial Intelligence is fundamentally changing how value is created and how professionals deliver results.

The question is no longer simply whether AI will affect your profession.

The real question is:

Will you use AI to become a more effective leader, or risk being left behind as expectations evolve?

This Executive Breakfast is designed to help you understand what is changing, what matters most and how to position yourself for greater professional and leadership impact.

She founded GradePoint AI, an AI-powered academic assessment platform that helps university lecturers grade assignments and exams, and deliver personalised student feedback in days instead of weeks. This solution has been able to free up 80-90% of lecturer admin time, while keeping lecturers in full academic control. She also built myhomeassociation.com, an Estate Management Platform that gives Executive Committees one accurate, transparent system for dues, records, and governance, replacing spreadsheets, disputes, and guesswork with a platform every homeowner can trust.

She previously served as Chief Marketing Officer at Aya Data, a leading AI consulting firm. Prior to Aya Data, she served as Group CMO at Databank Financial Services for 10 years and spent 15 years at Invesco Canada developing award-winning marketing campaigns.

Gillian is an international keynote speaker on AI transformation and serves as guest lecturer at the University of Ghana Business School as well as an adjunct faculty at NIBS University. She writes a weekly article in Business and Financial Times called Embracing AI with Dr. Gillian Hammah, where she breaks down AI concepts and discusses how AI can be practically integrated into organizations of all sizes.

She holds a PhD in Business Administration and is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Leadership and Governance (CILG). During her PhD, she won Best Dissertation from the Chartered Institute of Leadership and Governance. She was recognized as one of Ghana’s 50 most influential CMOs (2019) and won the Global Women in Marketing (WiM) AI for Impact Award in November 2025 for her work on advancing AI literacy and developing GradePoint AI for African tertiary institutions.
