Chief Inclusion Officer, SVP of Talent, Leadership and Culture
So Others Might Eat
Bettina Straight is an independent training consultant and the Chief Inclusion Officer and SVP of Talent, Leadership and Culture at So Others Might Eat (SOME) in Washington, DC. She holds a BA in Sociology, an MS in Student Personnel Administration, and has been training on various leadership and diversity topics for over 20 years. With a background in higher education and healthcare, her goal is to help participants see a subject from a new perspective, to engage them in respectful, honest, and productive conversation, and to leave them with a sense of connectedness and new understanding. Using personal experiences, knowledge of best practices, and the wisdom of those who know more than she does (as well as a bit of humor), Bettina’s super power is creating a comfortable environment where people feel safe enough to share, learn and engage.
Bettina's areas of expertise include inplicit bias, employee engagement, satisfaction survey administration, leadership development and coaching, and a variety of diversity and leadership subjects. Most recently, she has added "keynote speaker" to her list of favorite things to do, as her recent journey with breast cancer has given her an even greater appreciation for the impact relationships and connection have on her life, both professionally and personally.
