About The Kaler Group

"I have been supporting government programs for over 25 years and have had the privilege recently of seeing the tremendous difference that the Kaler Group can make in building an effective team."

"As an organization that describes itself as human-centered, Nicole's leadership was critical to always remind us of ways to balance putting the interests of the employees first even when it meant instituting changes that would be met with resistance."

“I have known both Julie and Nicole for over 10 years and worked extensively with them over this period. Nicole is the best team facilitator that I’ve ever encountered; she has a light touch, but simultaneously is firm in holding a team accountable for achieving its goals. Julie’s superpower is her ability to create order out of chaos and confusion; she helps achieve goal clarity and then team alignment to make it happen. Both of these amazing women are passionate about empowering women to reach their full potential.”

"I’ve always appreciated Nicole’s ability to turn complex challenges into strategic opportunities. Whether it was revamping our Rewards and Recognition program, optimizing our recruiting processes, or designing a future-state People organization, she brought both vision and execution. She doesn’t just create plans—she ensures they get implemented with real impact. Just as importantly, she’s never shy to speak up if she thinks an important perspective has been ignored. Her leadership is a rare blend of tenacity, collaboration, and results."

“Traci is a thoughtful, experienced coach and therapist. She has given me guidance and provided me with tools to work through struggles that had previously kept me from growing & learning. She has a gift for seeing the essential problem at the root of any situation and distilling it toward a workable solution.... I would recommend her to any person who feels stuck. You don’t have to go it alone! Her fresh insights have made a key difference in my life."

"At the individual, team, and enterprise level, she consistently demonstrated the ability to create alignment across the workforce towards clear goals and help the employees see how they fit every step of the way. I’d recommend working with Nicole and her team without hesitation across the full range of services they bring to their clients!"

"Nicole has an incredible talent for aligning people strategy with business goals. At Evans, she designed and implemented performance management frameworks, developed leadership training programs, and created data-driven insights to improve employee engagement and retention. She was instrumental in designing Evans' People function for scalability and effectiveness. Her expertise in talent strategy and organizational development makes her an asset to any company."

"Julie Flores Kriegsfeld has been instrumental in selecting, onboarding, coaching, and integrating new team members as the program has grown....The outcome is an incredibly high-performing team that works together and supports each other to achieve milestones."

"I have had the pleasure of working together with Nicole on multiple occasions over the years and much appreciated every one of them. Nicole consistently demonstrates an authentic and thoughtful approach to problem-solving, addressing not only the technical aspects but also prioritizing the human element—an often critical factor in achieving sustainable outcomes."

"Nicole is an exceptional leader who consistently elevates the organizations she serves. At Evans, she successfully led strategic people initiatives, enhanced leadership development programs, and implemented numerous improvements that increased employee engagement. Her ability to drive meaningful cultural and operational change left a lasting impact on our company. Any organization looking for a dynamic, thoughtful, and results-driven leader would be fortunate to have her."

"Nicole Anderson has provided a monthly leadership series to the core team members, selecting topics that are relevant to the challenges the team are facing, and has provided outstanding facilitation at key program meetings...The outcome is an incredibly high-performing team that works together and supports each other to achieve milestones."

"Had an amazing time at the Bold Leadership event with The Kaler Group and Jan Fox. Learned invaluable techniques to capture attention and project confidence."

"Having worked with Nicole for over 10 years, I can say with certainty she is one of the most talented professionals I know when it comes to designing strategies and programs for helping leaders at any level of an organization unlock their full potential and find ways to thrive. She led the design and evolution of our People function at Evans, blending traditional HR functions with our culture, learning and development, and employee engagement needs."

"I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your wisdom and thought partnership over the last few months. Your insights and guidance have been invaluable to us."

"She has worked closely with numerous leaders, both within our organization and with clients, helping them grow, unlock their potential, and strengthen their voices to create a greater impact. It has been inspiring to witness the meaningful and lasting contributions Nicole makes in every endeavor."

"The class was a great success! Have a great time participating and learning from everyone in the room.

I have already shared the highlights for the class to my team and have recommended it to them.

Can't wait until my upcoming briefing! I have already started practicing it."

"The manager commented yesterday about how he is seeing a positive change in the way they interact with each other. Specific behavior changes..they are joking around with one another, more patient. There is a difference in behavior toward each other. The manager is taking action as well - he posted the operating norms they created from the offsite and refer to them. Every couple of weeks the manager is now holding a team meeting to bring everyone together. They are connecting on a shared purpose."

"Working with Nicole has been a transformative experience for me as a leader, and for our organization. Nicole is a grounding force, bringing a sense of clarity to every interaction. She is able to see the big picture while identifying underlying systems and patterns that might otherwise go unnoticed. She possesses the ability to seamlessly blend insight with execution, ensuring that not only the right strategies are identified, but that they are implemented with precision and care."
