Shon Holyfield is CEO of Amazing Workplace, Inc., a company that measures and helps improve employee happiness through surveys and practical workplace solutions. Before founding the company, he served as CEO of two separate organizations and turned both from underperformers into top-ranked workplaces in the Pacific Northwest.
At Amazing Workplace, Holyfield leads a team whose members collectively have earned more than 150 top-100 workplace rankings, using that experience to design employee happiness surveys and implementation guidance aimed at cutting turnover and strengthening company culture.
He measures his own success as an executive by the number of people's lives he has improved rather than by conventional business metrics alone, and encourages other leaders to build workplaces where employees feel genuinely safe, heard, and valued.
