The Council of the Chamber of Digital Assets and Blockchain Innovations, Ghana Chapter (CDABI-GH), has congratulated its President, Caleb Kwaku Afaglo, on earning a Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) from the Universidad Católica de Murcia (UCAM), Spain, through UniAthena.
The award, confirmed by UCAM in September 2026, followed the successful defence of his doctoral thesis on leadership, organisational innovation and succession planning.
In a congratulatory statement issued in Accra, the Council described the achievement as a testament to Mr Afaglo’s discipline, intellectual commitment and dedication to professional development.
His doctoral research, titled “Leadership and Its Influence on Organisational Innovation and Succession Planning,” examined leadership practices within a Ghanaian public regulatory institution.
The mixed-methods study involved 165 participants and introduced the Gender-Inclusive Leadership Assessment Framework (GILAF), contributing to discussions on inclusive leadership and organisational development.
The Council noted that Mr Afaglo completed the research while providing leadership to the Chamber during a demanding period of engagement with regulators, members and industry partners.
It particularly acknowledged his leadership during the Chamber’s involvement in engagements surrounding the implementation of Act 1154, Ghana’s virtual asset law.
On behalf of the Chamber’s members and Secretariat, the Council expressed pride in his academic accomplishment and commended his continued commitment to advancing the digital assets and blockchain industry in Ghana.
The Chamber reaffirmed its appreciation for his leadership and wished him continued success as he applies his academic knowledge and professional experience to strengthen the organisation and contribute to the development of Ghana’s virtual asset ecosystem.
