Nichole Pitts is the the founder & CEO of Ethintegrity by helping clients seek more nuanced, creative, and digestible ways to solve complex Ethics & Compliance, and DEI problems. Helping them forge a path into a future where a healthy, diverse culture drives business and creativity helps them thrive.
Receiving a Doctorate of Jurisprudence from Indiana University’s Maurer School of Law was only the beginning of my story and a bit of a boring start, to be honest. But everything changed when my love of travel kickstarted an adventure into the world of Ethics & Compliance. Helping clients all over the world allowed me to meet new people, take in diverse perspectives, and practice using guidance from the US Department of Justice to teach “best practice” ethics.
Seeing how I could help people take real action towards diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) gave me a sense of purpose that I had been missing. However, I soon learned my approach had its limits, and they only amplified when I started my own company. Because while my background and training prepared me to navigate difficult conversations and dangerous situations abroad, I was also exposed to my own biases and realized that one size doesn’t fit all.
That one person’s definition of “good” doesn’t always capture the nuance needed in different cultural or business settings.

A prominent international senior executive and thought leader, Nichole (she/her/hers) has established her global reputation with cross-sector organizations, helping them advance their DEI, and ethics agendas.
Having lived & worked in the US, Paris, and London, Nichole understands the cultural nuances, requirements, and challenges faced by global companies, applying creative ideas to boost awareness and deliver sustainable DEI and compliance programs.
