Beth Conlin

Beth Conlin removes barriers. Whether aligning Fortune 500 executives around a shared growth strategy or building coalitions that span the White House, the Department of Defense, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Beth operates at the intersection of business and government where the hardest problems live and the highest-leverage solutions are built. In business, that means creating alignment where none exists. At Amazon, Beth architects pan-Amazon strategic partnerships across business units uniting organizations that rarely coordinate around a cohesive customer engagement model. She built the Pan-Amazon Executive Engagement Strategy, which generated over $4 billion in revenue in its first year, and she orchestrates CEO-to-CEO engagements with the company’s most strategic accounts. She leverages AI and generative AI to automate stakeholder intelligence and compress months of cross-organizational alignment into weeks. The barrier she removes in this work is organizational complexity itself; the silos, competing priorities, and ambiguity that prevent large enterprises from acting as one. In policy, that means changing the rules. The vague wording of the Status of Forces Agreement forced her to leave her career, a barrier that affects thousands of military families worldwide. She built a coalition to clear of the language in the SOFA, culminating in a Department of Defense memo clarifying that the SOFA does not prevent spouse employment. She has partnered with the White House, the Department of Defense, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce to draft and advance employment policies at the federal level. The barrier she removes in this work is systemic: outdated agreements, misinformation, and institutional inertia that keep talented people from contributing. Her business development instincts: reading a room of executives, quantifying value, building urgency around a shared outcome, make her a more effective policy advocate. Her policy experience: navigating federal agencies, building durable coalitions, turning data into legislative language, makes her a more strategic business leader. She does not compartmentalize these skills; she compounds them. Beth is a graduate of two presidential leadership programs, Obama Leaders, and the Bush Institute’s Stand-To Veteran Leadership Program. She serves as Board Chair of the Military Spouse Chamber of Commerce, a trusted advisor to PsychArmor, a board member of the Secure Families Initiative and belongs to several Department of Defense and White House working groups on military family employment.
