Awarded Among Top 50 Global Thought Leaders & Influencers in Edtech 2023. Empowering Future Innovators: STEAM Education Pioneer & Bestselling Author of Children's STEAM Books and Courses

Tech that doesn’t solve human problems is dead on arrival.

We live in a sea of tools and noise. I know this well, because I spent years navigating the digital rabbit hole myself.

During COVID, I was forced to confront some uncomfortable realities. My business had become heavy. Payroll was high. Time was being traded for diminishing returns. I was working long hours and seeing very little freedom from it. Something had to change.

That moment pushed me deep into digital transformation.

I began redesigning how work was done. Systems instead of strain. Automation instead of repetition. Technology that reduced effort and multiplied results. Over time, one principle became clear to me: when technology is applied with intent, it creates leverage. When it isn’t, it creates exhaustion.

I focused on using AI, automation, and cybersecurity-aware systems to build income streams that didn’t rely on constant presence. The outcome was not just efficiency, but breathing room.

Today, I design and teach the systems I use myself. I can create and launch a complete course in hours. I can build a functional website in under two hours. Speed comes from clarity and structure, not pressure.

I’ve published more than 10 books and sold over 10,000 copies worldwide, and I’ve trained thousands of people across technology and digital transformation. These results didn’t come from chasing tools. They came from applying the right ones, in the right way.

My work sits at the intersection of AI, digital transformation, automation, cybersecurity awareness, and revenue systems. I’m interested in what actually improves outcomes, returns time, and supports sustainable income.

If you’re exploring how technology can work harder for you, rather than the other way around, you’ll likely find my work useful.

You can start with my AI Hustle Book in the Featured section.
For those ready to go further, I host focused sessions like the AI Clarity and Income Clinic, where we turn ideas into working systems.

If this resonates, you’re welcome to connect.

If Africa is truly undermined, why are we still showing up unprepared? 

Yes, we were colonized. 
Yes, harm was done. 
Yes, exploitation still exists. 
Yes, unfair treatment is real.

But explanation is not a strategy. Performance is.

AI is a disruption wave creating a trillion dollar economy. 

The dividing line will not be geography. 
It will be capability.

Digital transformation is skills in motion. 

AI adoption. 
Automation. 
Data discipline. 
Cybersecurity hygiene. 

Teams that can turn tools into measurable output.

If Africa wants a serious share of this economy, we have to build the workforce and the standards that make us impossible to ignore.

IShowSpeed is a wake up call. 

We do not need to wait for a 20 year old to showcase Africa to the world. 

We need to tell our story through what we build, how we deliver, and the level of excellence we normalize.

Where are you putting skin in the game right now? 

Skills. Security. Data discipline. Product creation.

Ms Kim  (Sally Kimangu) 

Do you give “small” assignments your full energy, or do you save excellence for later?

This little one didn’t.

While 20 kids were dancing, one child decided: I’m going to own this.

Full commitment. 
Full confidence. 
Zero self-consciousness.

That’s the lesson for Sunday afternoon into Monday:

Treat the basics like they matter.
Practice like it counts.

Show up consistently, even when it’s “just” a warm-up.

And yes, dance like nobody’s watching… even when everybody is.

What if the most powerful force shaping the global economy today isn’t governments, capital, or institutions but the internet?

The digital economy now contributes over $15 trillion to global GDP. 

Platforms powered by AI, social media, mobile connectivity, and creator economies are growing faster than traditional sectors ever did. 

Attention has become currency. Connectivity has become infrastructure.

And then you see it in real life.

A 20-year-old creator, iShowSpeed, with tens of millions of followers, walks through cities in Africa and crowds form instantly. 

No advertising budget. 
No political machinery. 

No institutional backing. 
Just a smartphone, Wi-Fi, culture, and connection.

This is digital transformation in its rawest form.

The uncomfortable truth is that the internet has flattened power. 

Influence no longer waits for age, titles, or permission. 

Economic gravity now follows attention, platforms, and network effects , often faster than policy and institutions can respond.

Africa is not behind. Africa is connected.

What we are still leaving on the table is the ability to translate digital attention into structured economic value, jobs, ownership, and scalable systems. 

That gap is not technological. 
It’s strategic.


If a phone and Wi-Fi can mobilise millions and move economies in real time, what does that say about the systems still struggling to create impact with decades of control and billion-dollar budgets?

#DigitalTransformation #ArtificialIntelligence #CreatorEconomy #AfricaRising

I got stuck in the rabbit hole.
I chased every AI tool.
Burnt the midnight oil.

Every new tool promised to change everything.

Then I paused.

Because the truth hit hard:

I didn’t need another tool.
I didn’t need another course.
I needed clarity.

Most people aren’t failing at AI because they’re incapable.

They’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and quietly afraid of choosing the wrong thing.

AI is supposed to give you freedom, not more stress.

That’s why I created the AI Clinic.

Not to teach everything.

But to teach what actually works, simply, calmly, and profitably.

You don’t need more information.
You need relief, focus, and momentum.

What would change in your life if AI finally made things easier instead of heavier?

#AIClinic#WorkSmarter #DigitalClarity #FutureOfWork #AIForBusiness

I’m not sure what happens next.
But I know this much: AI is changing lives.

It has changed mine in ways I never imagined when I started.

Through technology, I have sold over 10,000 books, created hundreds of courses, and opened doors to new jobs and opportunities. 

Not overnight. 
Not perfectly. 

But steadily, by choosing to learn, adapt, and keep going.

AI did not make me less human.
It helped me become more effective.

It gave me clarity when things felt overwhelming.
It saved time when energy was running low.

It reminded me that progress does not always come from working harder, but from working smarter.

What I see today is not a lack of talent.

I see capable people who simply need reassurance that they are allowed to start where they are.

That is why I created the AI Clarity and Income Clinic.

A space for real conversations. 

Practical guidance. 

And calm confidence in a world that feels like it is moving too fast.

If AI has ever made you curious, hopeful, or even a little unsure, you are not behind. 

You are right on time.

What excites you most, or worries you most, about AI right now?

I work with youth across sub-Saharan Africa.

I see their struggle.
I listen to their stories.
I sit with their quiet disappointment.

Brilliant, capable young people
doing everything right
yet still locked out of global opportunities.

Not because they are not good enough.

But because there are gaps
no one ever warned them about.

Gaps in how the global workplace really works.
Gaps in communication and confidence.
Gaps in culture, contracts, and money.

I have watched talent shrink in interviews.
I have watched confidence disappear in emails.

I have watched opportunities slip away. 

Not from lack of skill but from lack of exposure.

And that stays with you.

That is why I am deeply excited about what is coming.

I grew up on a coffee farm.

Every Saturday, we all went out to pick coffee. 

It was labor-intensive, repetitive, and exhausting and I hated it.

My escape was books.

While others picked coffee, I read. 

That wasn’t rebellion, it was instinct. 

My dad worked in corporate Nairobi, and even at a young age, I admired his life the structure, the discipline, the dignity of thinking work. 

Being spotted with a book earned me a reason not to pick coffee. 

Learning became my way out.

That’s when I understood something most people learn much later:

there is honest work, and there is leveraged work.

Coffee picking is necessary, but it doesn’t compound. 

You work, you get tired, and the cycle repeats. 

Books, systems, and learning do the opposite they multiply effort over time.

One of the strongest lessons from my father was this:

hard work without redesign is a trap.

Today, AI is the modern version of that lesson.

Repetitive emails, manual planning, endless follow-ups, tracking tasks in your head this is digital-age coffee picking. 

If judgment isn’t required, it shouldn’t be consuming your energy.

Digital transformation isn’t about replacing people.

It’s about freeing humans from work that never required human intelligence in the first place.

This is the thinking I teach in my AI Clinic not tools for hype, but systems that create leverage.

Which part of your work is still manual simply because you haven’t redesigned it yet?

#DigitalTransformation #AdaptOrDie
#FutureOfWork

I miscalculated AI and for a moment it cost me focus.

I went deep very fast.
Learning. Testing. Creating. Launching.

AI made everything feel possible.
And honestly, it was intoxicating.

But at some point, I had to be brutally honest with myself.

I was learning more than I was implementing.

Creating more than I was converting.
Launching faster than I was sustaining.

And I am seeing this everywhere.

There is a sea of AI tools right now.
Every day a new one.

Every day someone wants to show you something “game changing”.

If you do not learn how to say no, you do not fall behind.

You lose focus.

Here is the hard lesson I learned.

Any AI tool that does not solve a real human or business problem is dead on arrival.

AI does not fix poor systems.
It exposes them.

If AI finds you disorganised, unclear, or without proper change management, it does not help.

It multiplies the chaos.

We do not need every tool.
We do not need to master everything.
We do not need to chase every update.

What we need is alignment.

What problem am I actually trying to solve in my business right now.

What drains time, money, or energy every single week.

What would move productivity, sales, or visibility this month.

That shift changed everything for me.

I stopped collecting tools.
I started building clarity.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck in learning mode, or excited but not seeing results, comment STUCK or FOCUS.

I will DM you a free copy of my AI Hustle book.

It is for people who want to stop going in circles and start using AI intentionally.

Be honest.
Who else feels this tension right now.

#AIinBusiness #DigitalTransformation #Leadership #FutureOfWork #AIForCEOs

Who in your life is brave enough to hold you to your highest standard when no one else is watching?

Not someone who praises you when things are easy.

But someone who reminds you to stay disciplined, stay prepared, and stay grounded when life gets uncomfortable.

That’s what Rowan Pope represented in Scandal. 

Not perfection. 
Not softness. 

But unwavering accountability. 

The kind that believes in you so deeply that it refuses to let you waste your potential.

As I close this year, I realise how much that kind of presence has mattered in my own journey.

My LinkedIn community has been that mirror for me. 

Through your feedback, 

your questions, 
your encouragement, 
your constructive pushback, and 
your support, you’ve kept me accountable to keep learning, keep refining, and keep showing up with discipline.

I’m deeply grateful to my staff and teams who kept going even when things were tough. 

Grateful to our students and communities whose hunger for skills and growth reminds me why this work matters. 

Grateful for everyone who stood with me, quietly and consistently.

This year taught me something simple and powerful. 

Growth is not accidental. 

It is built through discipline, consistency, and people who care enough to challenge you, not just cheer you.

As we step into a new year, here’s the question I’m sitting with, and I invite you to sit with it too.

Who in your life tells you the truth you need to hear, not just the comfort you want to hear?

Thank you for being part of my 2025. 

Wishing you and your loved ones a peaceful close to the year and a New Year filled with growth, clarity, and steady progress.

I’ve noticed something uncomfortable when intelligent professionals talk about AI.

They sound informed. 
They mention the tools. 
They follow the conversations. 

Yet somewhere beneath all that knowledge, there’s a quiet panic, because none of it has translated into consistent income.

I’ve been there.

Earlier in my career, while building and scaling businesses, I did what most smart people do. 

I assumed that staying updated meant I was moving forward. 

I consumed information, tested tools, and stayed “in the loop,” but my workload kept growing and my time kept shrinking.

What finally changed everything was not another breakthrough tool.

It was a realization most people never reach.
AI does not reward awareness.
AI rewards structure.

Until AI is placed inside a clear revenue system, it stays interesting but unprofitable. 

Once it is structured correctly, it stops being overwhelming and starts becoming leverage.

That shift is what allowed me to simplify operations, automate delivery, and turn existing knowledge into income without working around the clock. 

Not because I worked harder, but because I worked with intention.

Most people struggling with AI are not behind. 
They are simply missing the map that connects skills to income.

That is exactly why I am hosting the AI Clarity and Income Clinic on January 23rd.

This is a live working session where I walk through how to turn what you already know into a clear, monetizable AI-powered system, without confusion and without unnecessary complexity.

If you want to go deeper before the session, I have shared a free AI Hustle Book in the comments that explains the mindset and foundation behind this approach.

Details for the clinic are in my Featured section.

If AI still feels powerful but unclear when money is involved, this is where clarity begins.

Honoured to be invited to today’s LinkedIn Live with apdacademy  

We’ll get practical about one thing: 

how to decide what to automate, 
what to keep human, and where leaders must stay accountable, especially when AI output looks “right” but can be wrong.

If you’re a leader, manager, founder, or professional trying to use AI without losing quality, ethics, or trust—join us today at 7:00 PM (IST).

Bring your toughest questions. 

I’ll come with clear frameworks and real examples.

See you soon

AI will not replace humans. But humans who know how to use AI wisely will replace those who don’t.

The real question is no longer whether to use AI; It’s what to automate, what to protect, and what must stay human.

We’re excited to welcome Ms Kim (Sally Kimangu),  #CEO & Founder, Future Tech Africa, for our upcoming LinkedIn #Live session: “AI For You: What to Automate, and What to Keep Human.”

This session goes beyond hype and tools. It’s about decision-making, leadership, and performance in the age of AI.

Expect clear, practical insights on:
🔹 Where AI truly adds value, and where it doesn’t
🔹 What leaders should never outsource to machines
🔹 How to balance efficiency with ethics and accountability
🔹 Designing AI-enabled systems that remain human-led

Save the Date!📅
#Sunday 25th January 2026 at 🕒 7:00 PM (IST)

Sometimes the biggest problem isn’t talent. It’s access.

Power cuts. Weak internet. Not enough devices. 

Some days you feel the weight of it … then you remember: the children are waiting. 

So we keep going.

Because digital transformation is not a buzzword for us. It’s a lifeline.

So far, with the community’s support, we’ve:

✅ Trained 8,380 children through our one-day bootcamps

✅ Distributed 10,000+ books into eager hands

To every parent, teacher, volunteer, sponsor, and every person who shared a post or sent a child, thank you. 

This impact is yours too.

Now it’s time to go bigger.

Stream Park 2026 is ON.

Target: 5,000 children.

Sponsor a child. 
Partner as a school. 
Volunteer. Bring your company. Share this message.

We’re not waiting for perfect conditions to build the future.
We’re building it anyway.

#StreamPark2026 #DigitalTransformation #FutureReadyKids #BotswanaInnovation #STEMForAll

Here’s the uncomfortable truth:

Job losses are accelerating for one brutal reason: speed.

The market is rewarding people who can produce more, faster and automation is the multiplier.

If your workflow still looks like:

	•	starting from a blank page
	•	building slides manually
	•	rewriting the same documents
	•	formatting proposals by hand

…you’re competing with someone who can do it in 10 minutes.

Businesses don’t pay for effort.

They pay for outcomes and they cut anything that feels slow.

Here’s what makes it even more painful:
Most of the tools that change everything are FREE.

One I keep recommending: Gamma  AI (free).

Turn rough notes into clean:
	•	presentations
	•	proposals
	•	one-pagers
	•	training content

Fast.

I’m sharing in the comments:
	1.	the link to access Gamma AI for free

	2.	my free step-by-step mini-course on how to use it

Comment “GAMMA” and I’ll reply with everything.

Most people are not overworked.
They are under leveraged.

If your day is still filled with repetitive thinking, manual execution, and constant decision making, the issue is not discipline. 

The issue is that AI is not carrying its share of the workload.

Working harder will not fix this.
More information will not fix this.

Only leverage fixes this.

What you actually need is not another long course.

You need clarity on where AI fits in your real life and real business and how it immediately removes friction.

This is exactly what the AI Clarity and Income Clinic on January 23 is designed to do.

This is a focused, practical session that shows you how to: 

Use AI to reclaim at least ten hours every week

Reduce mental overload and constant context switching

Make faster decisions with less cognitive drain

Create systems that work even when you are offline

Here is the uncomfortable truth.

While you are deciding, others are already using AI to do the same work faster, better, and at a higher margin.

Registration closes January 15.

When you join, you receive the AI Hustle Book instantly.

Not theory. A practical foundation for turning AI into leverage.

If AI handled the busy work in your life starting this month, what would you do with the reclaimed time and energy?

We are living in one of the most technologically advanced moments in history, yet more people are mentally exhausted, overstimulated, and emotionally drained than ever before.

I work in digital transformation. 

I believe deeply in technology. 

I see its power every day.

But I’m also seeing something we don’t talk about enough: the quiet cost of always being connected.

Our minds rarely rest.

Our nervous systems are constantly alert.

Even in moments of silence, many of us are still scrolling, thinking, responding.

For me, walking has become non-negotiable.

I walk every day, usually 45 minutes or more, sometimes over an hour. 

Always outside, in the bush, with my dogs. 

No phone. No notifications. 

Just crickets, butterflies, squirrels movement, and space.

That walk is not exercise for me.
It is regulation.
It is healing.
It is how I come back to myself.

As we step into 2026, we need to widen the definition of digital transformation. 

Yes, we need smarter systems, better tools, and faster innovation. 

But we also need to be far more intentional about mental health, wellness, and digital boundaries.

Digital detox is not about rejecting technology.

It is about learning how to remain human while using it.

Recently, I watched a clip of Buddhist monks walking across countries for peace. It moved me.

Slowing down. Walking. 

Choosing presence in a world addicted to speed.

They are not the point.
The reminder is.

As leaders, builders, and advocates of the future, our responsibility is not only to push progress, but to protect the people living inside the systems we create.

If this resonates, share this post and  follow Ms Kim (Sally Kimangu) for more reflections and practical insights on digital transformation and learning how to thrive not just perform in a digital world.

What is one small daily practice you use to disconnect and take care of your mind?

As a CEO, there’s a moment that humbles you.

It’s when you realise that no matter how hard you work, how committed your team is, how many programmes you run, the system is still too fragile if it depends on you showing up.

Industry data shows that nearly 70% of digital transformation efforts fail, not because leaders didn’t care, but because transformation was treated as a project, not a fundamental shift in how organisations operate.

I’ve lived this pain personally.

Classrooms reached.
Lives impacted.
Momentum built.

Yet deep down, I knew something uncomfortable:

If I stopped, too much would stop with me.

That realisation changes you as a leader.

Digital transformation is not about software.

It’s about resilience, scale, and dignity — building systems that continue to create opportunity even when leaders step back.

In 2026, my work is no longer about doing more.

It’s about building platforms that allow many others to do more, educators, institutions, governments, young people, and businesses without dependency.

No more one-off interventions.
No more hero leadership.

This year is about systems that outlive individuals and partnerships that are serious about long-term capability, not short-term optics.

If you are a leader asking hard questions about scale, sustainability, and real impact, this is the work I’m committed to.

What are you building that will still work without you in the room?

I use AI and automation in my work and it’s changing how I operate.

I’m moving faster.
I’m clearer.
I’m wasting less time.

And I’m seeing the same shift in my students and the businesses we train:
more confidence, better systems, and real execution.

By 2030, the World Economic Forum projects 170M new roles created and 92M displaced.

And it doesn’t take forever to start: 

~30 hours for beginner AI skills, 
~137 hours for advanced.

Thank you, World Economic Forum ,for the New Economy Skills work putting structure behind this global urgency.

What digital skill are you committing to in the next 30 days?

#DigitalTransformation #DigitalSkills #AI #Upskilling #FutureOfWork

The start of a new year often comes with a familiar message:

set goals, move faster, digitise, adopt AI, don’t fall behind.

It can feel like everything needs to change at once.

But before we rush into tools and trends, it’s worth pausing to ask a simpler question:

what would actually help you right now?

AI is being positioned as the solution to many things, productivity, growth, careers, efficiency.

if you were to use AI this year, where would it make the biggest difference for you?

Let’s start the year with clarity, not noise.
