Phoebe Khagame builds the human side of the systems everyone else forgets to design. In 14 years across Africa’s health and education sectors, she’s learned that good solutions rarely fail because of the technology; they fail because of the people, incentives, and habits no one designed to sustain them. That’s where her work focuses. She’s restructured an organisation into cross-functional teams that lifted performance by 62% and doubled revenue, brokered coalitions that got ministries, manufacturers, and academics across seven countries pulling in the same direction, and built the engagement systems that turn one-time users into committed ones. To her, adoption isn’t a launch milestone; it’s a behavior you must design for.

FRESH Speakers, Inc. is a next-generation speakers bureau, uniquely representing women and people of color--two groups historically left off the public stage. Our speakers range from business leaders to artists, scientists to athletes. They have given ground-breaking TED talks and written best-selling books, but, more importantly, their wisdom comes from real world, lived experiences. FRESH speakers routinely grace the world's biggest thought leadership stages, host nonprofit benefits, and keynote Fortune 100 corporate retreats, university lecture series, leading tech conferences, grassroots organizing convenings, and countless other venues, the world over.
