-R. Beck, Sr. Vice President Office Leader, Top US Best Financial Services Firm To Work For
“Wow. What can I say about We Optimize Work and their overall expertise and customer service. One word. DYNAMIC. Before hiring the We Optimize Work team, our agency was a nightmare. Our systems and processes were outdated and we were in constant burnout. We left feeling more compelled and stronger in business, we actually applied what they taught us, they created a full roadmap of our customers journey and allowed us to focus on niching down on our services. We were able to restructure, get a new team and a new wave of clientele for success. I highly recommend working with We Optimize Work.”

Meet Our Founder & CEO:
Domonique Townsend
We Optimize Work was founded to address key engagement gaps that many of my peers and I faced in various industries. To address these gaps, I created playbooks to drive engagement from the front line employees to the executive level to identify and implement opportunities for continuous improvement and innovation. The playbooks established executive buy-in and helped fully capture employee knowledge that was largely untapped. After experiencing consistent success, I wanted to lead a larger impact in how leaders engaged with employees to carry out strategic goals globally.
Utilizing 16 years of experience and expertise as an Industrial Engineer, Change Management Expert and Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt, The WOW Approach™, proprietary framework was developed. The We Optimize Work team has helped companies save millions and lead transformation in organizational health using this framework.
As the CEO, our vision is for We Optimize Work is to serve as a leading global solution for team strategy intelligence saving companies an average of $3 billion a year in disengagement and productivity costs while impacting the lives of all employees by making work feel good.
