June Professional Development Luncheon
Topic: Building your business through Purpose, Passion and Process
About the Speaker:
Beau Noblitt
Founder of Launch Point Leader
Beau Noblitt is the Owner/ Operator of Two Chick-fil-A Restaurants in Murfreesboro, TN & the Founder and Owner of Launch Point Leader. He grew up working with his Dad in the HVAC business and learned the value of hard work and dedication to craft. Years later, when he was in college he decided to start his next professional chapter and worked his way up from the bottom in the quick service food industry. After years of working every job in the business, he and his wife took an opportunity to become business owners for the first time.
He became the Owner of a location no one else wanted and that had underperformed for nearly a decade. He and his wife worked open to close for years, never taking a day off. When his first child was born, his wife was working alongside him at the restaurant and she went straight to the hospital in labor!Now, 20 years later, he has learned a thing or two from those early days of working non-stop and having everyone depend on you. He has grown his business from 30 team members at one location to nearly 300 at multiple sites. Along the way he found a passion for leadership development. He believes that once you clarify the mission, adopt the right process, and partner with the right people, you can achieve things beyond your wildest dreams.
His hope with founding Launch Point Leader is to partner with other business owners in a systematic way. To help them grow so that more good can be done in this world. Above all, he believes that great leaders change the trajectory of communities and individuals. As Launch Point Leader continues to grow he is excited to partner with business owners to learn, lead, & launch.

Kenzi Keene
Farmers Insurance Agent
With a 12-year tenure in the insurance industry and a lifelong resident in Rutherford County, I found my calling as a licensed insurance agent for Farmers Insurance through personal connections and what I believe to be God's greater plan. Farmers Insurance, with a century-long legacy, has grown into one of the nation's largest insurance companies. Achieving recognition on the Tennessee Leaderboard, I am honored to have received accolades such as the Blue Vase for Life, Topper Club, and the Triple Crown Award for excellence in all lines of business.
My commitment extends beyond professional success – I take pride in fostering meaningful relationships with my clients. I aspire to be more than just a knowledgeable agent; I aim to be a reliable friend who prioritizes their best interests in every insurance scenario. Actively engaged in various boards, including Rutherford Cable, Rutherford Independent Networking Group, and Locally Owned Murfreesboro, I contribute to the community's growth and development.
In my personal life, I have been happily married to Michael for 22 years, and together, we cherish our two beautiful daughters, Bella (19) and Lilly (17). Our family also includes two dogs, one cat, and a surprising 22 fish – a story I'd be happy to share. Guided by the principles of authenticity, trustworthiness, accountability, and creativity, my mission is to make a positive impact in both my professional and personal spheres.
