Tech in Motion unveils top regional tech leaders in management for 2020


Los Angeles – Tech in Motion announced Liam McCallum, Chief Product Officer of Loop Media, Inc., as a finalist for the Best Tech Manager category in this year’s annual Timmy Awards, which recognizes the top workplaces for tech professionals. Exemplifying great leadership and positive influence, these managers have led their teams and colleagues through unexpected territory and identified what it takes to inspire performance and promote growth in even the most challenging circumstances. Until Sept. 30, Los Angeles’ community can vote here for the Regional Winner, who progresses to the national Timmy Awards, judged by experts from companies like Netflix and Oracle, with winners announced at the Timmys’ virtual ceremony.

“In a year marked by such unanticipated and unprecedented challenges, we understand just how critical a role leadership plays in the growth and performance of a team or company,” says Mandy Walker, Director of Marketing at Tech in Motion. “Tech in Motion has the honor of acknowledging leaders of tech workplaces who go to extraordinary lengths to empower their teams to succeed in a changing world.”

The selection criteria for the Best Tech Manager is based on the following:
• Promotes career growth and inspires innovation
• Goes above and beyond to ensure a great team culture
• Employs a clear and communicated vision to produce a great product

“Liam is always someone in our company who is able to help us stay ahead of the curve,” says Justis Kao, Chief Communications Officer at Loop Media, Inc. “His experience having previously been Head of Digital at EA Asia and then running his own start-up has enabled him to manage and advise not only his team but others in the company. As we have entered into an unfamiliar season, Liam’s ability to pivot quickly and communicate efficiently and effectively has really benefitted us at Loop Media to continue to flourish and move forward.”

2020 will look a little different: the 2020 Timmy Awards Ceremony will be an entirely digital experience and hand out two new awards, “Tech for Good” and “Top Enterprise Employers,” to highlight companies providing support and opportunities when the tech community needs it most. The complete list of awards and 2020 Timmy Awards regional finalists can be found here. On Thursday, Oct. 29, the public can virtually join Finalists, Regional Winners and the tech community at the celebration, complete with guest speakers and National Timmy Award announcements.
