The Story Behind the Tea
Author. Speaker. Human Resources Leader.
I'm Ebony Russ - a Human Resource Business Partner with 20 years across insurance, financial services, and aerospace and defense. My work spans policy development, employee relations, investigations, performance management, and the human side of organizational change.
I also teach Human Resource Management and Training & Development as an adjunct professor. As the author of Tea, Tactics & Tenacity: 10 Tips to Thrive in Corporate America, I help professionals sharpen performance, opportunity, and resilience inside the cultures they navigate every day.
My message is simple: success is about more than performance. It is also about perception, relationships, communication, confidence, boundaries, and knowing how to move through the culture around you.
