Agnes Muthoni · AI speaker, trainer and advisor

A pilot is not transformation.

Across Africa, organisations are testing AI. Few can show what it has changed. I help boards, leaders and teams move from pilots to proven results, with local context and numbers you can report.

  • Your board is asking about AI, and nobody has a clear answer.
  • You have run AI pilots, but cannot point to a result.
  • Your team uses AI on their own, with no policy, no training and no shared tools.
  • Reports, onboarding or collections still take hours of manual work every week.
  • New rules are coming and you need to know your exposure: the Data Protection Act 2019 and the proposed AI Bill 2026.
  • Your event needs a speaker who can show what AI looks like in African businesses, not Silicon Valley.
How I work

Baseline. Target. Result.

If it does not show up in your numbers, it is not transformation.

Baseline

We measure where you are today: hours spent, costs, confidence and readiness across six dimensions.

Target

We agree what success looks like and the number that will prove it.

Result

We measure again and report the change: hours saved, costs cut, confidence gained, tools adopted.

Selected work

Done inside the companies, not studied from outside.
