Lisa Zimmermann

Data & AI Strategy Lead & Deputy Head of Data & AI

Biography.

I am passionate about turning AI into real business impact. As Data & AI Strategy Lead & Deputy Head of Data & AI at PostFinance AG, I’ve led the development of enterprise-wide AI strategies, managed a million-dollar Data & AI portfolio, and built governance frameworks that balance innovation & value creation with governance & control.
My work focuses on integrating AI into business strategy, ensuring that AI initiatives drive real value rather than remain isolated experiments. Before PostFinance, I worked in AI-driven product development and business model innovation, always focusing on bridging technology and strategy.
With a BA in International Business (Germany & US), an MSc in Management Science (Germany & Argentina), and research experience in Ambidexterity (Switzerland), I bring a strong academic foundation in systems thinking and modelling to my work. My mission is to make AI a true driver of business transformation by aligning technology with strategy and fostering cross-unit collaboration.
