Beyond the Bio

As a girl from small-town Alabama with a single mom, I had nothing to lose—so I hitched my wagon to the stars.

I wanted to be an astronaut for the view. Perspective—and data—have always obsessed me.

My dad moved to Florida when I was six to work in aerospace at Cape Canaveral. My mom stayed and taught graduate-level statistics.

 "Of course the daughter of a rocket scientist would have to find a way to define intuition in an equation. It isn't rocket science—it's simple and buildable."

No surprise I started as a Kodak analyst, earned my MBA in Finance (in French), and rose to lead strategy and FP&A at the corporate officer level.

For someone in finance, I see risk not just as downside to hedge—but as upside to experience.

Friends say “risk” defines me. I say it’s being an explorer. A decade of living and working internationally sharpened my ability to decode what’s unsaid in rooms of power.

My boldest bet? Marrying my 4th grade sweetheart at nearly 40—a tennis pro living with MS.

I followed my intuition. It drives my I.R.R.—my internal rate of return—exponentially through love every day.

The Leadership Landscape Has Changed

70%

of executives feel unprepared for the complexity and speed they're facing

Leadership today isn't about doing more—it's about knowing what matters.

The Cost Of Decision Paralysis

Margin Erosion

Too many decisions, not enough clarity. Leaders get stuck in analysis paralysis while opportunities slip away.

Stalled Innovation

When data drowns out intuition, teams can miss what the future market is becoming.

Strategic Drift

Without clear decision-making frameworks, teams lose focus on what truly drives enterprise value.

I've sat in all the seats and I have felt the pain of what happens when complexity overwhelms the team and results don't come.

From grand opening a Chick-fil-A franchise to steering Corporate Strategy in sports retail, I saw my results transform when I simplified priorities so we could execute successfully. I'm passionate about helping other C-suite leaders build and then learn to listen to their intuition and trust their expertise.

Audience Takeaways

  • Simplify complex decisions by activating strategic intuition

  • Balance data and discernment to lead with clarity and precision

  • Accelerate outcomes by taking bold, calculated risks

HOW INTUITION ACCELERATES RESULTS IN HIGH-STAKES LEADERSHIP

In today’s complexity-saturated world, simplicity is a strategic superpower. In her signature keynote, Tracey Abbott cuts through the noise with hard-won insight, real-world leadership stories, and actionable frameworks designed to help executives make better decisions—faster.

Tracey introduces her Intuition Accelerant™ formula—where AI meets I.A.—to show how intuitive intelligence, grounded in experience and smart risk-taking, can drive innovation, revenue, and sustainable growth.

She shares her Purpose Value Creation Plan™, a 4-stage leadership journey modeled after the way investors create value in companies. During the growth stage, intuition becomes the accelerant for bold, high-clarity leadership.

To close, she introduces the concept of the Personal I.P.O.™—an Integrated Purpose Offering—to help leaders align who they are with how they lead, and “go public” consciously every day.

Why Intuition Matters

AI can detect—but only humans can discern. That discernment comes from intuition.

Most leaders overestimate theirs, treating it like instinct—something you're born with.

But intuition isn’t fixed. It’s buildable.

Tracey’s proprietary Intuition Accelerant™ helps leaders sharpen intuition into their ultimate competitive advantage—transforming experience and calculated risk into exponential growth.
