In 1990, TEMPO established the Mentor Awards event to recognize individuals and organizations in the community dedicated to the mentoring of others. Mentor Award recipients are nominated by individuals within the Milwaukee community. Nominations are then judged on three criteria: mentoring of others, business leadership and community leadership. Our 2026 Mentor Award judges are: Danielle Bly (2025 Mentor Award Recipient), Margaret Henningsen (2025 Mentor Award Recipient), Nezih Hasanoglu (M3 Insurance), Alicia Kiser (M3 Insurance), Brook Mayborne (TEMPO Foundation Board Chair), Ana Simpson (TEMPO Board Chair).

Winners receive a financial contribution in their honor which is designated in his/her name and awarded to a woman at a four-year educational institution in the state of Wisconsin. Scholarships are provided by the TEMPO Foundation, through the generous support of corporate sponsors and individual donors.
Mentor Award recipients will be honored on Thursday, February 26, 2026 from 11:00 AM - 1:30 PM at the Pfister Hotel during a luncheon awards ceremony.
Nominations of individuals for TEMPO’s 36th Annual Mentor Awards are now being accepted through Friday, November 28, 2025.
