The builder behind AI Strategy League

Grace Man speaking at the AI & Big Data Expo Europe, Amsterdam

Most consultants advise but never build. Most builders never step back to strategy. Grace Man does both.

Grace founded AI Strategy League after more than a decade scaling growth at Microsoft, Canon, and high-growth startups. When AI changed what one person could build, she left to start an AI-native company from scratch. Now she runs it on the exact systems she teaches.

She works across two dimensions at once. She advises on the strategy, then builds the system that delivers it. Same hands, both jobs. The systems run her own business first, in public, before they ever reach a client or a cohort.

The track record

  • $2B+ in revenue influenced at Microsoft, with up to 50% month-on-month conversion uplift
  • 90%+ year-on-year revenue growth led at Canon EMEA, across 12 markets
  • $0 to $105K per month scaling a fintech app, over 118% growth
  • 1,000+ executives coached and 10,000+ senior leaders educated on agentic AI

AI Strategy League is a live R&D lab and teaching company. It joins the strategic layer, a framework for managing AI agents with real accountability, and the practical layer, live builds of real agents for real workflows.

It serves two people. Lean-team founders who want growth without hiring a crowd, and marketing leaders bringing real AI capability to their team. Both want the same thing. Not more tools. A system that works.
