Recognized as a gifted, inspirational, and motivational speaker, Samuel Betances' insights and commitment to workforce diversity issues rank him as invaluable in empowering leadership in the public and private sector. As a sociologist, educator, and professor of 20 years, he has taught race relations, the U.S. Latino experience, church and society, education and reform, and gender issues. His national and international travels, media exposure, sense of humor and bilingual/bicultural roots greatly enhance his creative commitment to equity and excellence in making diversity a plus for the bottom line.
This great motivator was not supposed to make it. Out of the bowels of inner city poverty, stigma of minority group status, violence, welfare, and illiteracy in two languages, he arose.
With strong spiritual convictions and his passion for reading, Samuel Betances has taken the hard lessons from the mean streets of life and reshaped them into his personal vision.
He embarked on a journey from dropping out of school to a Doctorate from Harvard University.
Today, America's foremost communicator on the challenge of casting away barriers to success is an honored Professor Emeritus, a consultant to Presidents, managers, community groups, clergy members and educators, and a role model for youth.
