Betty Sanders, FBMM’s Chief People Officer and first-ever employee, will retire at the end of the year.

Sanders initially joined Chuck Flood & Associates in 1986 (started by the late FBMM co-founder Chuck Flood) before transitioning to FBMM when it was established in 1990. She has held numerous positions and risen through the ranks over the years, from Receptionist to Office Manager to Vice President/General Manager, before stepping into her role as Chief People Officer.

“Betty has often been called the ‘heart and soul’ of FBMM, and it’s so true,” says Julie Boos, Owner and Chairman. “FBMM has been shaped by her kindness, dedication and the way she has always cared so deeply for both our people and our company. Words can’t adequately express the impact she’s had over the last four decades on our company and the people we are today.”

Prior to joining FBMM, Sanders worked in music publishing and publicity, handling everything from accompanying clients on promotional tours to filing song copyrights and more. She also spent time at Pride Music Group and as a production assistant for a record producer in a joint venture with Warner Bros. Music.

Sanders was inducted into the SOURCE Hall of Fame in 2022 for her contributions to the music industry.

“From the early days working out of Chuck Flood’s home to watching FBMM and its people grow over the years, I’m thankful to have had a front-row seat to that growth, energy and the brilliant people I’ve supported over the last 40 years,” shares Sanders. “From helping coach teams through challenges to aligning staff resources with our growing client base, I have enjoyed every minute of it. Now I’m looking forward to spending more time with my family and embarking on a brand-new chapter.”

FBMM has hired Tiffany Coursey as the firm’s Senior Vice President of HR. With more than 25 years of experience, Coursey will oversee all HR functions and play a critical role in defining and driving employee-focused initiatives across FBMM’s offices in Nashville, New York and Los Angeles.
