Bettina is one of those women to admire. Those that gives you energy. Smart, ability to handle family, job, aspiration with strength without loosing her human touch. When professionalism meets the heart. It has been a pleasure to work with the Federation EIL project and learn from her.

I met Bettina first through the BMW Foundation Responsible Leaders Network. She impressed me immediately with her passion, open-mindedness and positivity. I was very honored when she asked me 3 years ago to become a member of the Kuratorium of Experiment e.V.. Working with her I learned directly with how much compassion, entrepreneurial spirit and innovative ideas she is heading the company and leading a big, diverse team. Bettina is always positive and I admire her for keeping a calm and hands-on attitude even in challenging situations. Her longterm experience and deep knowledge in the field make her the expert in Europe for intercultural exchange programs and anything related. But more than that, with her very supportive personality, I can always come to her with questions or ideas and get valuable feedback. She is a very special person who you want to be around - as a colleague and friend.
