About Me…

Laurie Percival is an enthusiastic and experienced leader in People Operations.

I’ve helped scale two startups and have been involved in the early stages of building a company culture where people enjoy coming to work each day, and it showed in our engagement survey scores and in our team connections. Some of the projects that I have implemented and rolled out are full-cycle recruiting, onboarding, off-boarding, benefits administration, engagement & pulse surveys, performance reviews, leveling, and compensation bands. I’ve also spent time revamping and enhancing processes that were in place so they could scale with the company.

I’m passionate about cultivating a company culture where people feel valued for the work they do and believe in the company mission and vision.

I enjoy creating solid, repeatable processes that ensure a great experience for applicants and employees as the company grows. I’ve applied agile practices to people operations and utilized tools to automate when it makes sense. I know that data drives decisions and have extensive experience gathering, analyzing and applying data across all areas of the people department to make decisions.

I believe that working remotely doesn’t have to come at the cost of employee productivity or connection.

You can build an engaging culture based on values and mission anywhere. Good company culture drives productivity. When your employees feel that the company values align with their own, they feel more connected to the culture and mission. When you empower them to make decisions, they feel a sense of ownership in how the company performs. When you have managers that practice servant leadership and are there to offer guidance and feedback, employees feel supported and valued.

If you enable programs to gather feedback from your employees, collect actionable data and then enable your teams to make lasting change, you can foster a company culture where people enjoy coming to work.
