Meet Gabriele Hamm Adler, Owner, GHA Development – Growth for People & Business
Driven by a deep belief that Diversity & Inclusion and business success go hand in hand, I am passionate about creating inclusive environments where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. Having worked in highly diverse teams across cultures and countries, I have seen firsthand how inclusion fuels innovation, engagement, and growth.
I bring to the D&I Committee nearly 30 years of international experience at IKEA, where I held roles such as Global HR Manager and Global Competence Development Manager, with a strong focus on people development, culture, and business development. I have also served as a senior lecturer in Personal Leadership Development at Rotterdam Business School.
Currently, I work as a leadership development consultant and executive coach, specialising in corporate culture and value-based leadership. I look forward to contributing with my experience and energy to support and strengthen the Diversity & Inclusion efforts of the Swedish Chamber of Commerce and its members.
