Human Decision Intelligence Innovators
Chelsea & Ni’coel founded The Center for Human Decision Intelligence.
Their experiences working across science, technology, art, and bleeding-edge finance revealed patterns that highlighted decision-making as both the root problem and the root solution to the challenges of our day.
Ni’coel Stark
Ni’coel started the fourth blockchain-exclusive VC fund in 2014 and has been at the forefront of innovation in film, tech, venture capital, human capital, and organizational systems. She has been practicing the Enneagram and teaching Human Decision Intelligence for more than 15 years, allowing her to partner with individuals and build business strategies that have empowered hundreds of leaders across innovative domains. Her skill set within human and business systems puts her at the edge of progressive human intelligence work.

Chelsea Makena
Chelsea worked alongside founders and tech executives to meet the demands of scale by enabling human growth. Her experience solving human problems allowed her to contextualize the skills of Human Decision Intelligence and bring practical insights, real-world examples, and a high degree of predictability to the Center. Her domains of expertise span leadership development, enablement, engagement, and performance and her work across the employee lifecycle has proven the need for this evolved and increasingly expansive framework.

“Ni’coel helped me to discover very valuable insights into my own strengths and to make important changes in our business that I had not seen. I highly recommend her work.”
Robert Scott
“Chelsea was able to identify and provide clear strategies which aligned the organization as a whole, in turn breaking down silos. She helped me directly with my career growth transition into a leadership role through her experience working in hyper-growth companies.”
Taka Maki
“Ni’coel consistently showed me alternate paths I wouldn’t have found on my own and I can’t tell you the amount of conflict she’s helped me to avoid. One key result is that I now make decisions with far more clarity in every aspect of my life — decisions about how I engage with the people around me, as well as the situations I’m confronted with on a daily basis. I have grown tremendously as a person and a leader, and literally wouldn’t be where I am today if not for Ni’coel.”
Sheryl Ryan
“There is a fearlessness in Chelsea's approach and one of the reasons she's so successful in this domain, aside from her determination and boundless positivity, is her ability to clearly and effectively articulate project plans. She made many allies at the company not just because she was well-liked and fantastic to work with but because everyone knew she could get results.”
