About Nicole

Hi! I’m Nicole Townsend. Instead of sharing my LinkedIn profile, I wanted to give you an idea of who I am as a person. 

I’m obsessed with experience. I believe that every experience counts. Each day presents an opportunity to create moments that matter. Even simple, small gestures foster connections that inspire employees to do their best work.

I’m energized by real people. I see each employee as an individual with unique skills and strengths. When organizations and leaders make the effort to personalize their experience to best meet their needs, your employees and your business will thrive.

I’m dedicated to the future of work. I see past the traditional 9 to 5. COVID-19 caused many organizations to reevaluate work, down to when, how and where it happens. It also caused employees to take stock of what matters most in their lives. Many organizations are now reimagining the employee experience to best support their workforce and their business.

I’m all about family. I’m a wife, mom, daughter and friend. My husband and I have two teens (one boy and one girl), one seenager (my mom) and a Pomeranian poodle. Having my own company gives me the freedom and flexibility to be there for my family. I encourage my team to do the same.

How Employee Experience Impacts Your Success

Don’t take our word for it.
Research shows that investing in the employee experience contributes to business success.

McKinsey & Co. shares how organizations can help close the gap between what today’s workers want and what companies need.

Gallup reports that in 2023, just 33% of U.S. full- and part-time employees were engaged in their work and workplace.

Gallup’s most profound finding—ever—is probably this: 70% of the variance in team engagement is determined solely by the manager. 

PwC reports more than a quarter of people say they are likely to change jobs in the next 12 months .
