Verificado @patreniaspeaks.comJ. Lamont Harris was Honored as a MOJO Hero during the inaugural MOJO Hero Summit held in Lagos, Nigeria. The summit ran across 2 weekends and He was a Session speaker on Friday February 26, 2021. He was our first speaker and he was absolutely excellent, hitting the mark perfectly. Before the engagement, J was very careful to understand what the summit sought to accomplish...what was a MOJO hero?...who is our target audience? He took the time to gain CLARITY of Purpose. He then met with me to show options available and in his spirit of servant leadership, shared, lifted, taught me as he laid the options-- I learned so many new tricks of the trade as well as experiencing firsthand J's compassion and passion for the work of leading and triggering transformation in others. He leveraged technology and stood out in his unique positioning between the slide and the room !!!
