About Betsy Neyer

I am a Strategic Organizational Leader with extensive experience building a business from infancy or adolescent stage to peak performance, profitability, and success. I thrive on new or first-ever challenges where I can utilize my resourcefulness, research, and analytical skills to gather the information needed to develop a strategy and plan to get the business on track, through obstacles, and moving intentionally toward our objectives. I enjoy and excel at identifying new opportunities and shaping the vision, and am also adept at helping others to understand, align on, and rally around the vision and mission of the organization. Throughout my career I have become known as a trusted, innovative, and empowering leader who consistently envisions and explores possibilities for greater growth and success and leads the way to realizing those possibilities and our maximum potential. Areas of Expertise: • Organizational Leadership • Macro Strategic Thinking/Planning • Synthesizing and Activating • Distilling Complexity into actionable insight • Creating & Building • Change Management • Research & Analysis • Creative Problem Solving • Cross-Functional Alignment • Communication • Stakeholder Relationships • Culture Shaping • Team & Talent Development • Engagement & Retention • Community Involvement & Advocacy I am energized by the give and take of Board and Advisory work, where I can both apply what I have learned and also collaborate and learn from others to develop the best solution to the challenge or opportunity ahead. I believe we get out of something what we put into it, and that we can create the future we envision with optimism, integrity, and authentic and trusted leaders. I am always interested in working with others who share that vision and love connecting to learn more about the amazing work so many in my network are doing.
