Here I am; I host; I speak; and I talk on panel discussions... Unimaginable 10 years ago. Reality now. Still unbelievable. Still loving my job and everything it comes with it.

HR professional and practitioner with a strong IT background and nerdy mind. After years in positions as Head of People & Culture or HR, I decided to switch my focus, roll up my sleeves again and get my hands dirty.

Now I am helping companies, teams and individuals in the fast-growing and highly dynamic IT environment with their needs related to development, growth, internal processes, people-relatad data interpretation and communication. My academic roots in anthropology and other humanities were an immense advantage in my transition to the IT industry, where I deeply anchored myself. I cannot imagine my life without being surrounded by those clever, smart individuals with their willingness and drive to grow and learn more.

My overall philosophy is quite holistic and that reflects even in my approach towards all of the People related topics – viewing the whole area not just as "human resources" but as "human relations," emphasis on the value of interpersonal connections. Thanks to my analytical and entrepreneurial nature I strive for a balance between the people-centric and data-informed decision making. And always making sure the decisions are being made hand in hand with the business needs of the organisation.

Promise Akwaowo

Promise Akwaowo is a United Kingdom-based artificial intelligence governance, intelligent automation and product delivery practitioner who works at the point where promising technology meets the realities of live operations, user trust and accountable scale.

At Royal Mail Group, he contributes to automation and digitalisation within a complex national operational environment, helping shape solutions where reliability, exception handling, measurable value and clear human accountability matter as much as technical capability. Earlier in his career, he worked across financial technology and logistics technology, contributing to product strategy, onboarding, cross-border payment access, operational workflows and business-model transition.

Promise has been invited to share his experience at Financial Times Live, TechEx Global, Robotics & Automation, the Association for Project Management and other international technology and professional platforms. He also contributes to British Standards Institution artificial intelligence standards activity, bringing practical delivery experience into wider conversations on responsible technology.
