About the Founder

Hi, I’m Betsy Kauffman, Founder, CEO and Coach at Cross Impact, TED speaker, and mentor in the Charlotte Women in Business Mentoring Program. In addition to my Bachelor of Business Administration from James Madison University, I also spent 20+ years working in corporate America trying to figure out how to balance motherhood, working full time, climbing the corporate ladder in a competitive environment where women weren’t supportive of each other, and supporting my husband while he started his own business. In 2014, I started Cross Impact when I realized the work I loved to do and the impact it made was desperately needed in organizations around the world. 

I am constantly surrounded by boys/men in my home (growing up as the only girl on both sides of my family) living with my husband, and our 2 teenage.  I even spent 5 years working for the Boy Scouts of America. 

Growing up in a “guys world” has helped me be successful working in male-dominated fields

My ”boys” are really into cars so we have a garage full of fun cars to drive as well as ATV’s, dirt bikes, and a boat. 

While I’m not working or spending time with my sons, I enjoy boating on the lake near our home. I love entertaining and often have friends over for drinks or dinner. You can also find me playing ball with my dogs – Ellie, Sadie, and Oakley. I am a huge fan of rescuing dogs and have been a “foster fail” mom to three lab rescues. 

Now for some fun!

Current Obsessions:

Hi there, I’m Natalie Solomon, a senior organizational consultant. One of my superpowers is that I am a connector and a master manifester of curiosity and change.  I’ve always been passionate about people and building high-performing teams, I am a servant leader and a change agent at heart. I believe that building connections with people is key to helping them embrace and understand change, which is hard but constant in today’s world. 

My career began after I graduated with a dual major in business administration and human relations. I started my career off as a recruiter, getting to know individuals and listening to them to help them figure out where they would be most successful within an organization. I’ve always had an entrepreneurial spirit. Over the last 20+ years, I have spent most of my career working in or with large Fortune 100 + companies.  No matter where my career path has taken me, I have always looked each new opportunity through the lens of understanding the goals of the organization, the current state and laying out an approach of how we might we achieve those goals. I am very data-driven and analyze data to help our clients achieve their goals, which involves a lot of experimentation. 

I believe that without data or measurement, it’s hard to figure out where the client needs to go. I am also very pragmatic in my approach, always listening to understand the needs of our clients so that we can lay out the foundational plan to measure progress.  

When I’m not working you can find me traveling with my dog Mack, enjoying beaches, boating, traveling around the world and sipping my favorite wines.
