Here are what some colleagues and standards program experts are saying about working with Betsy.
Amitabh Srivastav, CIP, IGP, PMP, AIIM Fellow, Chief Data Officer and VP, Compliance and Risk Management, HELUX
Betsy’s leadership and project management of the CIP certification test refresh and development of the study guide in 2023 was exceptional. She was incredibly organized and kept the project on track, ensuring that every detail was handled. Her communication was clear and timely, making it easy for all participants to stay informed and engaged throughout the project. Betsy’s ability to balance the big picture with the finer details resulted in a high-quality refreshed exam and comprehensive study guide. Her expertise and dedication were evident throughout the project.
Marjorie Hlava, Founder, Chairman, Chief Science Officer, Access Innovations and ISO/TC 46/SC 9/Working Group 8 convener
Betsy is a life saver. I get things done, quickly and with attention to detail. But I confess to hate being bogged down by bureaucracy. Betsy knows and understands the ins and outs of the requirements and was able to keep our ISO 25964 within the bounds of the organization and let it move as quickly as possible to a successful conclusion. She immediately pitched in as needed, insured required reports were filed on time and properly. It was a great team. I appreciate her talents.
Richard Palarea, Entrepreneur, Innovator and CEO at Kermit
Very few individuals that I’ve worked with have the absolute competence and professionalism as Betsy. In the time we worked together at AIIM International, Betsy displayed expertise and knowledge on the subject matter for which she had oversight. She operated both as our own internal expert and also to the membership and general public — and was received well regardless of the group she was assisting. She continues to be a valuable asset to AIIM.
Theresa Resek, CIP, Director, AIIM
Over the years, I have worked with (and for) Betsy on a variety of programs at AIIM. Betsy’s knowledge and experience have been valuable to me. Her willingness to share her knowledge and to simply help out on so many tasks, large and small, exemplifies her team spirit. I’m always impressed with her writings and knowledge of the industry. Along with her passion and impressive ability to make dry techie subjects come to life, she is a true professional.
Duff Johnson, Executive Director at PDF Association, ISO 32000 and ISO 14289 Project Leader
This recommendation is long overdue. It’s of course also unsolicited, because Betsy does not blow her own horn. Betsy works tirelessly on behalf of AIIM members and (so important to me, my company and my industry) the AIIM Standards Program. In the world of Standards, Betsy has the unenviable job of herding highly intelligent cats. She deals with it all calmly and just gets things done. Speaking as both geek and employer, thank you for all that you do for geeks and their employers, everywhere.
Tom Sharron, President, Spencer’s Ridge Owners Association
As president of the Spencer’s Ridge Owners Association, I know I can walk into our Board meetings and Annual Members meetings confident that our meetings will be efficiently run. For the last four years, Betsy has kept our HOA running effectively obtaining all assessment payments and organizing and promoting meetings. When the pandemic hit, Betsy rapidly moved our meetings to virtual and we were able to keep our HOA moving forward.
Jack Waldren, Property Owner in Spencer’s Ridge
As a property owner in Spencer’s Ridge, we appreciate the dedication Betsy shows to our community. She ensures all owners are able to express their concerns and share ideas for improving our community. Since we were a new community, Betsy worked on getting street lights installed to keep our community safe. Betsy makes sure all owners are informed of Board and annual meetings and the decisions taken at each meeting.
