Let's work together

About us

Built on systems,not on heroes.

Shikumi-ka helps Kenyan businesses grow by design.

Too many Kenyan businesses depend on one or two people, and stall the moment those people are stretched or gone. We exist to change that: to build capability into the business itself, so it keeps working, and keeps improving, without you holding it together.

What we believe

  • 01

    Systems before effort

    Hard work can't fix a badly designed process. A good system makes good work the easy default.

  • 02

    People grow inside good systems

    Clear procedures, fair reviews and real responsibility are how ordinary teams become capable ones.

  • 03

    Results should be repeatable

    A great month that nobody can explain is luck. A great month you can do again is a business.

  • 04

    A little better, every month

    Small fixes, made on a rhythm and written down, compound faster than any big change.

Who you'll work with

I'm Diana. For close to a decade I've helped organisations get licensed, get organised and deliver, from small businesses to development projects. I work alongside you and your team: in the work, not just in a report. What we build together is yours to keep.

The name

仕組み化

Shikumi-ka is a Japanese word for turning the way you work into a system: building it so it runs well every time, whoever is doing it. That is the whole job.
