On November 7th, TMC attended the LA Times B2B Inspirational Women Forum and Leadership Awards, where we sought inspiration and extended our support to women leaders across Los Angeles County. It was a full-day event with various engaging panel discussions led by accomplished business leaders with diverse backgrounds.
At the heart of TMC’s transformative journey is our guiding force, Jennifer Harris, our CEO, and President, whose passionate commitment to mentorship and role-modeling forms the heartbeat of our work culture. Jennifer’s commitment has not only earned her the well-deserved nomination as the Inspirational Woman of the Year but stands as a testament to the very essence of our workplace ethos. Her dedication to creating a culture of support and mentorship is the cornerstone of why she was recognized with this prestigious award. This profound impact of mentorship and role-modeling isn’t confined to our office walls—it’s a force that propels our team towards professional growth and success, echoing in the exceptional care we provide to our clients.
“I am driven by the belief in using my own successful experiences to empower others to move forward. I place great emphasis on mentoring my team to evolve into role models for their teams as they progress in their careers. Nurturing their confidence to navigate the changing and competitive IT world is an ongoing challenge that demands continuous evolution. I understand that having someone to guide and support personal growth is essential for individuals to pursue their dreams with confidence.”

3 Panel Highlights
The speakers’ stories and invaluable advice resonated with us as we immersed ourselves in the event. Here are our takeaways from the panel discussions.
- Mentorship and Sponsorship
The Mentorship and Sponsorship panel emphasized setting up systems for success, from the time of mentorship to sponsorship. The panelists echoed the sentiment that reverse mentoring and specific, goal-oriented outreach are pivotal in any mentor-mentee relationship. This means that mentees should be clear and specific about what they want to accomplish through the relationship, and mentors should also learn from their mentees. - Innovation to Impact
Navigating through the Innovation to Impact panel, the speakers call to embrace authenticity and plea for an equal need for diverse leadership styles. - Empowerment
Empowerment involves letting go, trusting, and sharing the journey with your team, emphasizing the significance of curiosity in personal growth.
