Ebony Smith is the Founder & Chief Growth Officer of Ebenum Equation, an AI-driven leadership development firm helping executives and teams build the skills required to lead in a tech-accelerated environment.

She specializes in developing “AI-augmented leaders”, people who can make faster, smarter decisions, hold steady in chaotic conditions, and lead with human-centered clarity.

Before stepping into consulting, Ebony spent over 15 years at BP and World Fuel Services, leading global derivatives, price risk management, and complex client portfolios.

That frontline experience with volatility and rapid decision cycles shapes the way she coaches and advises leaders today.

Her work is highly relevant for consulting firm owners who need to help clients navigate AI, build adaptive systems, and maintain trust during rapid change.

Ebony’s approach blends coaching, foresight, and practical AI fluency, giving consultants a clear model for elevating their own advisory work.

Proposed Interview Structure:

1. Ebony, you began your career in energy trading and risk management before becoming an MCC executive coach and strategist. What led you to make that transition and eventually build Ebenum Equation?

2. You focus on developing AI-augmented leaders and collapsing decision latency. What core problem do your clients come to you with, and why does it matter now more than ever?

3. Who are your ideal clients today? When organizations bring you in, who are the actual decision makers, CHRO, CIO, CEO, or someone else?

4. You have a very clear lane at the intersection of AI and leadership. What have you found most effective for attracting new clients, speaking, content, partnerships, or something else?

5. When conversations move into scope and buy-in, especially around AI-enabled leadership programs, how do you usually bring engagements across the finish line?

6. Once an organization starts working with you, how do you ensure long-term relationships? What do you do to keep clients coming back and to make your work indispensable over time?

7. Where do you currently find yourself most stretched or stuck, whether it’s productizing your IP, scaling delivery, or something else?

8. Looking a few years ahead, where do you see the biggest opportunities when it comes to AI and leadership? If you were running a boutique consulting firm today, where would you double down, and what would you quietly stop doing?
