Grayson Sylvester Julius
Co-Founder, iPF Softwares & AI Transformation Lead
OpenAI PartnerExecutive AI Advisor25+ Countries in Africa
Grayson Julius is Co-Founder of iPF Softwares and leads AI transformation work across Tanzania and 25+ countries in Africa. Over the past decade he has worked directly with executive teams and boards to translate AI from a source of pressure into a clear, actionable strategy, guiding some of the region's largest banks and enterprises through that transition. He does not teach AI in the abstract. He teaches what he has actually navigated in the room with leadership teams making real decisions. At this masterclass, Grayson brings that same executive lens to HR, helping People leaders see exactly where AI is already reshaping hiring, retention, and performance, and what to do about it before their organisation is forced to react.

The hiring platform CRDB Bank, Coca-Cola, and Yas Tanzania already trust
Niajiri Africa is the workforce and talent platform behind hiring and career development for some of Tanzania's largest employers. On one side, they help HR teams source and screen candidates faster with AI-enabled matching.
On the other, they equip job seekers with the skills, visibility, and career tools to compete for those roles.
That two-sided view of the Tanzanian labour market is what keeps this masterclass grounded in practice — the hiring and retention challenges covered here are the same ones Niajiri's platform already helps employers solve every day, not theoretical case studies.

Most AI training is generic — the same overview deck reskinned for whichever audience is in the room. This one is built specifically around HR decisions: hiring, retention, and performance. It's taught by people who've actually implemented AI inside real organisations, not consultants reading from a deck, and you leave with your own AI Readiness Score and a 30-day Action Plan for your department — not just a stack of slides.
No. While the content is built for HR and People leaders, anyone is welcome to join — including COOs, founders, and business owners who currently run HR themselves.
Business casual. The one thing you must bring is a laptop — this is a hands-on building session, not a lecture, and you will be configuring tools throughout the day.
This is intentionally in-person only — the live AI Readiness Assessment and hands-on exercises don't translate to a video call. There's no virtual or hybrid option for this cohort.
Yes, we're VAT registered. A digital TRA receipt is issued within 24 hours of payment confirmation, and a hard copy is handed to you in person on the training day.
