As we journey into 2023 and meet the challenges that lie ahead in managing through the truest of economic uncertainty in some time, the one certainty we can count on is the wealth of resources and opportunities available through TMA.
During the past several months, we have highlighted the meaning of that one connection that makes us 10,000 connections strong, and at this year’s Distressed Investing Conference, we celebrate that you are part of something bigger.
More than a theme, being part of something bigger is the beginning of another TMA story. It speaks to the connections we have made and those we have reinforced. It reminds us that there are more connections to make and more opportunities to seize upon as we create the journey that is our story.
Every year tells a new chapter of the TMA story and this year, for the first time in many years, what it means to be part of something bigger has come to be appreciated like never before.
Being part of something bigger means that for solo practitioners to members of the largest of firms, the TMA community is one that supports and thrives because of the level of diverse opportunities that can be called on in so many different ways.
We pride ourselves on the local opportunities made available through our chapters as much as we do those made possible through our regional, global, and international efforts. We have resources, talent, and just plain old comradery for when we want it, need it, or just need to know and be reassured that it is there. This is what defines us. This is what makes us stand out. This is the essence of our vibrancy.
I hope, like me, you take a moment in this new year to reflect upon what it means to be part of something bigger because in that, the one connection you are is a critically important link and the basis of this TMA family that very much feels like home.
As we begin to create the story of this year at this Distressed Investing Conference, be reminded that with each connection you make and those you have amassed over many years, the resources of TMA are there to support you in your professional journey.
From friendships to business referrals and seizing on professional and networking opportunities, who you are in the TMA universe stands out. Because of each and every one of you, this big tent is better, stronger, and bound to continue to grow.
So, in this new year, it is my hope, whether your focus is local or you journey to the far reaches in pursuit of opportunities presented through TMA, that you know you are part of something bigger, and with that knowledge, that you are bigger, stronger, and more vital and vibrant too.
