Nicole’s passion is driving organizational transformation with a people-centric approach, focusing on leveraging process and technology to maximize the power of people. She started her career in the contact center before moving into the operations world at major financial services brands, State Street and Federated Investors.

She recognized the opportunity with tech to harness the power of people involved in service delivery outside the traditional contact center, she transitioned her career into the Workforce Engagement space, pioneering and leading to this day Workforce Management capabilities designed to meet the needs of operations teams.
