BKD CPAs & Advisors is pleased to announce Nickie Redick as the recipient of the 2021 PRIDE Award, the firm’s highest internal honor.
Redick, this year’s employee award recipient, is an accounting and auditing director based in Indianapolis. With more than 15 years of experience providing audit, accounting and consulting services to a variety of clients, Redick is well known for her phenomenal client service and investment in BKD’s people.
Redick stands out for her ability to balance client work, networking events and coaching/developing colleagues – all while maintaining a strong commitment to family. She is a member of the American Institute of CPAs and the Indiana CPA Society. She is also a founding member of Executive Women in Finance in the Indianapolis area and was a finalist for the 2020 and 2021 Indy’s Best and Brightest awards in accounting. Redick is a 2006 graduate of the University of Indianapolis where she received a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting.
“I’ve seen firsthand how much Nickie’s clients appreciate her,” said one colleague. “I think clients appreciate her ability to be direct and professional while still being relatable and authentic. When her clients pose questions, you can bet she will either have the answer or find it promptly and work to understand it, so she knows for the next time.”
The BKD PRIDE Award was created in 2003 to honor individuals who exemplify BKD’s PRIDE values – passion, respect, integrity, discipline and excellence – in extraordinary ways. This prestigious award is presented annually to a partner and an employee, who are nominated anonymously by their peers within the firm. Award winners are recognized at BKD’s annual leadership conference, where they address more than 1,200 of their colleagues after receiving the coveted BKD PRIDE bowl and a cash prize.
“Nickie’s receipt of the PRIDE Award provides recognition and validation of what we in Indianapolis see every day – her authentic dedication to BKD’s clients and our people,” said BKD Indianapolis and Bloomington Managing Partner Kevin Pahud. “She seeks to leave every situation improved and to be thoughtful in every interaction. She is truly a trusted advisor and more than deserving of this honor.”
