Earnest J. Morgan

Public Speaker, Trusted Advisor, and Technologist in Nashville

Hi, I’m Earnest.

A Business Development Executive, Public Speaker, Trusted Advisor, and Technologist currently living in Nashville’s Wedgewood-Houston Neighborhood.

Enabling world-class organizations, serving the built environment, meet business objectives, and deliver their unique brand promise through exceptional technology experiences is, a passion.

I accomplish this by building high performance teams, working with enterprise clients and cross-functional teams to create new smart home, and smart building channel opportunities, build value-based strategic partnerships. Together, we uncover new sources of competitive advantage for my clients, partners and shareholders.

The key to my success has been my ability to solve complex business-to-business challenges (B2B2C), enhancing the client experience, and modernizing sales processes and the people that power them.

My interests range from sustainable living to thoughtful technology for places where we live, work and play. I also enjoy immersive travel experiences, a fruit-forward Prosecco, and discovering new music.
