the problem
Most Employee Experience (EX) programs are stuck in the past—and it's costing companies billions. Sorry, Trillions... $8.8 Trillion according to Gallup.
Yes, you can replace disengaged employees—but you'll pay for that too.
And when they leave, they take with them:
❌ Institutional knowledge that makes work more efficient
❌ Critical insights that drive innovation & problem-solving
❌ The investment you made in their growth & training
It's not a hiring problem—it’s keeping the right people engaged, aligned, and thriving so they don’t leave.
The future of work is about creating workplaces people want to stay in.
THE RESULT
A Broken Workplace
Organizations try to attract and retain top talent using outdated policies, rigid structures, and disconnected leadership.
🚨 High turnover & disengagement
🚨 Employees craving flexibility but feeling unheard
🚨 Leaders overwhelmed with managing people in a shifting world
We keep trying to fix burnout with resilience training instead of designing workplaces that don’t burn people out in the first place.
But do we even fully understand what's creating the burnout crisis, to begin with?
That’s where I come in.
THE SOLUTION
Future-Ready EX That Puts People First
Using foresight, intuition, and strategic design, I created a workplace experience centered on choice, flexibility, and humanity.
The results?
✨ #3 ranking on Newsweek’s Most Loved Workplaces
✨ Hundreds of accolades celebrating our people-first approach
✨ Policies that supported employees—wherever they were in the world
✨ A culture that didn’t just survive the crisis but evolved because of it.
Now, I help HR leaders, CEOs, and high-growth companies do the same.
Together,
we're designing
workplace experiences that work -for people

If you’re an HR leader or executive
carrying the weight of your people’s well-being on your shoulders, I see you.
THE ONES WHO TAKE CARE OF EVERYONE ELSE NEED SUPPORT, TOO.
I bring futurist thinking + EX expertise to help you design workplaces
people actually want to be in.

It all started with a call for help.
"Kendra, We Need Your Help—We Have to Solve for This Thing Called COVID”
When the world turned upside down, my Chief People Officer came to me with one urgent request:
"Figure out how we help our people now… and what this means for the future of work."
No pressure, right?
What started as an immediate crisis response became my epiphany—The Future of Work is Human.
It wasn’t about policies, office space, or even technology.
It was about people—what they deeply needed, how to help them understand where, when and how they worked best. It was about how we could design Employee Experience (EX) programs that actually led to a workplace experience, that works - for people.
