”Definitely one of the best choices made! 😀

The Finnish Development Policy Committee invited Elina Nikulainen to explore digitalization and the role of female human rights defenders earlier on this year. The smooth process resulted in a publication that met perfectly our needs. I can warmly recommend Elina to similar endeavours and look very much forward to working with her again.”

Marikki Karhu
Secretary General of the Finnish Development Committee

”I’ve had the pleasure to work with Elina in a strategy process for an equality organization Miehet ry in 2020. Having had this experience, I am assured that Elina is a highly skilled strategy process worker and a great strategic mind. She shows substantial dedication in everything she puts her mind into and brings indisputable value to the process. While doing so, she brings her friendly and professional personality into the game. I have no doubt recommending Elina to any strategic process you embark on.”

Janne Salakka
Public Affairs Manager, Kiinteistöliitto

”Panelistina Elina oli erittäin asiantunteva, selkeä ja johdonmukainen. Naisten asemasta ja tasa-arvosta käytävän kansainvälisen ja monikulttuurisen paneelikeskustelun ehdottomasti paras puhuja, jonka asiantuntemus ei jättänyt ketään kylmäksi.”

Silja Ahonen
Senior Account Manager, Polhem, Esprit yhteistyö

”Elina Nikulainen consulted Aiven with DEI and gender equality related topics during 2021 and 2022. She was an instrumental part of getting this work at Aiven started.

Elina is a partner who always combines ambitious goal setting to pragmatism and navigates each context with deep professionalism.

During our cooperation Elina wore two different hats, first working as a strategy consultant and later moving on to a coach role setting the internal team up for success.

Elina’s rich experience of supporting and counselling work was demonstrated in the way she listened and engaged and in all the valuable perspectives she was able to provide.

I wish every feminist, whether working in a company, in a NGO or in politics would have a person like Elina to walk beside them. I’m really grateful for all the learnings I got from our cooperation.”

”Elina has a wealth of experience and knowledge in gender. She poses great facilitation skills. She is very engaging with participants hence making the learning environment conducive for participation. She would be an asset to any employer and I wholeheartedly recommend her for any endeavour she chooses to pursue.”

Lorna Maso
Gender and Social Inclusion Technical Coordinator, World Vision Papua New Guinea

”Elina is a brilliant expert, a skilled facilitator and an engaging trainer.

I had the pleasure of working with her on the development of our new PSEAH policy and guidelines. The process was consultative and inclusive by design, and it included several training sessions with our staff to kick off the implementation. The feedback from colleagues was very positive.

I was of course impressed with Elina’s broad background and knowledge that we got to benefit from, but what really makes her stand out is her passion and commitment to these issues that invites others to join in. Not only did we finalise a state-of-the-art policy under her guidance and authority, but also laid the foundation for a wider organisational change.

Any organisation looking to build or update their capacities related to PSEAH would be fortunate to work with Elina.”
