Have you ever considered that we have a set amount of energy that can get us through any given day?  #BuildYourOwnAccelerator™ workshop  focuses on building resilient leaders using design thinking, mindfulness and emotional intelligence. Our day-to-day professional responsibilities and tasks can become all-consuming. This workshop is a call for us, founders, to stop and analyze the forces that constantly demand our time and attention and the choices we make every day that pull us away from needed strategic planning, visionary, and personal time. The workshop is designed to help you recharge, revise and execute on your ideas and network.

The retreat will be held at a members Private Residence in Plantation. You will receive the address in your confirmation email.


About Speaker Ebony Smith

For 18 years, Ebony Smith has worked in the Fortune 100 for Ryder, Sunoco Logistics, BP Integrated Supply and Trading, and World Fuel Services. Ebony has a BS in Chemistry from Philadelphia University and a MS Environmental Protection and Safety Management from St. Joseph’s University of Philadelphia. She began her career in the operations and logistics side of the energy industry and eventually made her way to sales, marketing and oil origination, where she successfully developed her industry niche. For 13 years Ebony worked with Exploration and Production companies, industrial users, refiners, maritime and aviation companies on contract oil supply and energy oil price hedging using derivatives.

Seven years ago, however, Ebony felt that something was missing. So, she decided to shift the way she was functioning in corporate America. Ebony read, meditated, journaled and hiked the Himalayas but it wasn’t until she started her own career prototyping and redesign that she found the tools to change her trajectory. Then in 2015, she made the big shift to set out to help others find their bliss. Ebony has completed her Certified Professional Coach training at IPEC and is designated a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) by the International Coach Federation (ICF). She is trained Hypnotist and Certified Myers-Briggs Practitioner. Ebony has finally discovered the perfect equation for exponential growth: working within a corporate culture plus deep- rooted passion for personal transformation can equal a life worth living.

Ebony Smith & Associates, Inc. is a certified woman-owned and minority-owned small business that provides leadership development and employee experience design services through coaching, facilitation, workshops, and talent development.
