and knowledge.
She is not afraid to challenge the status quo.

in the areas of marketing, management and leadership. In December,
2001, her book, True Leaders: How Exceptional CEOs and Presidents

by such major publications as The Wall Street Journal, USA Today,
The Dallas Morning News, Harvard Business Update and numerous other
national publications. Her articles on marketing, management and
leadership issues have been published by more than 200 trade publications

of leaders-Generation Y/the Millennials. Her recent proprietary
research on Generation Y/the Millennials with colleague Mark Holmes,
provides valuable insights on how companies can best utilize this
new generation of talent to effectively grow profitably in the future.
Their co-authored book on their findings is due out next year.

On a personal
note: The most unusual thing about Bette may be that she is one
of the few people you will ever know who had a twin engine aero commander
crash into her house and live to tell about it. That's right. The
ill-fated cargo craft took off from Love Field Airport, near downtown
Dallas, at approximately 3 a.m. on a warm, July morning. After only
15 minutes in the air it crashed through the homes of Bette and her
neighbor. The miracle--no one was killed! It did displace Better and
her family for nearly a year, but today, Bette says that when stressful
things happen to her, she simply takes a deep breath and says
."Well,
it's not an airplane."
Bette and her
consultant husband, John, continue to live in their rebuilt Addison,
Texas home. They are the proud parents of daughter, Lani and son
Blake and enjoy their wonderful grandchildren, Brittany, Lauren,
Austin and Alexis. "They are the joys of my life and keep me
young in my thinking and current in technology," says Bette.
