V.H., Partner, Cypress Growth Capital
We had Betsy lead a company-wide virtual seminar (DNA of High Achievers) and it was a truly inspiring and engaging experience for all. She seamlessly mixed humor and "academic" research with her very relevant personal experiences. By doing so, she drew even our "quietest" team members into the conversation and left us all with the urgency to take immediate and substantive action. Most importantly, Betsy is simply a "good" person. She is fun and inspiring person to be around. You just feel better about yourself after interacting with her. She talks about being the average of the 5 people closest to you (i.e. your "inner circle"). If so, you would definitely boost your "average" if you're lucky enough to have her in your inner circle!!!
