Welcome to up in the chair

I felt like nobody could do a better job than me and I needed to do it all myself. But that's crazy. You can't do everything. Once I learned how to attract the right help from those who loved my vision and had the skill set to implement my vision, I was taught how to delegate-- which I didn't know how to do either. Once I got that down, it didn't take long. I saw the talent and enthusiasm these college students had and that I could nurture... I mean, they're so excited to help. It's like the most wonderful feeling in the world.

Devora is one of the most creative people I've gotten to meet. She's taken an idea others may have floating around and made it a concrete business.

The EMA program offers visionary leaders a platform for connecting with these emerging professionals and sharing their wisdom; it is a place to unite the generations. EMA is creating the world many of us dream about where the whole person is centered in the work experience; where what matters is known in the heart, called forth and listened to welcomed as a contribution to the whole.

When planning a Jewish lifecycle event, I can think of no one more creative and fun to work with. I have been to multiple events that Devora has designed. She is especially attuned to the unique make-up of a family and the person being honored, and she organically builds the milestone around that. You might know that you want your occasion to have a particular feel, but she will bring it to fruition from beginning to end. As soon as you share your desires, her creativity kicks into gear, and together you generate a vision that everyone will remember.

With the "Grow Your Business-Leave A Legacy" program, I was able to get more done in 3 days than I had in 3 months with EMA

Think about the most meaningful moment at any event you have ever attended… Up In The Chair will guide you in bringing those moments to life.

Devora is a selfless inspiration for the community of impactors in the world. She has proven to be very resourceful and has been very supportive in sharing my talent to the world. I highly recommend her for any endeavor.

I entered a whole new world of endless opportunities compared to any traditional internships

Devora is one of the most creative, passionate and caring people I know. She is a great listener and is smart and thoughtful in her response. I’ve never worked with someone more energetic and eager to help you be successful in what you do!

As a CEO, Devora is so well-organized, open-minded, and truly strives to create a community and environment where everyone feels seen, heard, and included.

It’s not just about the work. It’s about being inspired by a team and having a creative outlet to showcase what I can offer

Up In The Chair is a perfect place to go when you want to make any celebration or any milestone or any program more meaningful. Devora is able to hear what you want and bring it to the next level using her quick wit, creativity, thoughtfulness, and extensive experience. She listens to who you are and what your want to create and then helps you attain these goals and even beyond. She turns the ordinary into something extraordinary for you and for your family members and friends.

I was able to spend my time doing what I love to do and in my area of expertise and turn over all the other "stuff" to an intern who loved what they got to work on.

If you are looking for someone that is optimistic and dedicated to bringing your vision to life, then Devora and the EMA team are for you! EMA provides the important elements that are necessary for a scaling company with creativity, attention to detail strong communication and organization.
