KEYNOTE SESSION

Rise: Leading at Every Level

Rise: Leading at Every LevelĀ is a keynote that is part personal testimony, part practical framework, and entirely built for the CEMA community. Drawing on her journey from practitioner to Fortune 500 C-suite executive, Ebony shares what it actually took to earn influence, build strategic credibility, and rise to leadership at the highest levels.

At any career stage, the difference between good and exceptional comes down to the same thing: intention. Not just hard work. Not just results. A deliberate practice building influence and doing the inner work to show up authentically for your team.

CEMA Summit is where this community comes home, where the people who understand your work also understand your ambition. Ebony’s keynote honors that spirit. The audience leaves energized, seen, and equipped with something they can act on before the Summit is over.
