Business Journals across the nation held the annual Mentoring Monday on February 26. Here at home, the Tampa Bay Business Journal selected 33 of the most influential businesswomen in our community to serve as mentors during its 11th Annual Mentoring Monday event. We're honored to share that 66% of this all-star group of mentors are Chamber Members engaged in our Board of Directors, Minority Business Accelerator, Minority Empowerment Program, Leadership Tampa, Leadership Tampa Alumni, Workforce Development, Small Business of the Year Awards, and more...
Among the list of Chamber Members participating were Board Member Cammie Chatterton, Owner/President/CEO of Bay Food Brokerage and Jennifer Negron, Executive Director of Business Services & Site Lead of Amgen; Small Business of the Year 2023 winner, Courtney Jackson, Founder/CEO of Paragon Cyber Solutions; and Avril Stinson, Vice President of Economic Inclusion & Leadership Development of the Tampa Bay Chamber.
The annual event hosted by TBBJ's parent company, American City Business Journals , is known for its speed-mentoring with the most in-demand businesswomen in each host city. Mentees attending have the opportunity to grow their networks and connect with leaders they may not have access to otherwise.
