About Our Speaker
Betty Garrett, CMP, has been a powerhouse in the meetings industry for over four decades, including 31 years as President of Garrett Speaker International—a boutique bureau known for connecting the right speaker with the right audience. Her career began in the skies with Braniff International and quickly took off into meeting planning roles at Mary Kay Cosmetics, YPO, and MPI, where she discovered her talent for building unforgettable events and lasting relationships.
In 2022, she sold her beloved bureau—but retirement wasn’t in the plan. Betty launched Garrett Executive Coaching to help speakers and business leaders clarify their message, amplify their impact, and grow with purpose.
She’s been honored with NSA’s Meeting Partner of the Year, MPI’s Leadership Award, and a Lifetime Achievement Award from NSA North Texas. Still active, still energized, and still showing up with style—Betty says she’s not retiring anytime soon. (Someone has to keep funding the hair, nails, and facials!)
