Hello, I'm Nicole. I am a talent management and HR "nerd". I love to blow up long-held beliefs that stop us from preparing our organizations for the future of work. I feel lucky to have had an amazing corporate HR and consulting career that I recently turned into my own start-up, talent.imperative inc, a talent experience design consultancy. My second, not-for-profit business, DisruptHR Chicago, was launched in 2016 and has inspired more than 1,700 HR and business leaders in the Chicago area.

I am honored to serve as an IDEO U coach, an advisor in Northwestern University's Master's in Learning & Organizational Change program, and as talent blogger for HuffPost.

Join the hr.hackathon alliance, a community of HR rebels who believe in the power of human centered design to help solve our most pressing workplace challenges.
