Agoura Hills, California--(Newsfile Corp. - September 22, 2026) - Cydcor, a leading provider of outsourced sales and customer acquisition solutions, today announced that four of its leaders, spanning IT, marketing, and executive operations, were recognized at the Los Angeles Business Journal's 2026 Valley Women's Leadership Symposium & Awards, held August 20 at the Sheraton Universal Hotel in Universal City, California.

The honors reflect a defining trait of Cydcor's culture that opportunity is there for those who want to grow, and these four leaders show what's possible when people take it. The recognition follows a strong year for Cydcor's own leadership, with President and CEO Vera Quinn named an EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® honoree, the 2025 CEO of the Year at this same Symposium, and a 2026 LA500 honoree.

Kelli MacIver, Chief of Staff, was named the Mentor of the Year honoree, the category's top award, recognizing leaders who invest in developing others. Three additional Cydcor leaders were recognized:

• Samantha Rogers, VP of Technology, finalist for Executive of the Year, which recognizes exceptional executive leadership and business impact.

"We're a high-performing business with standout people, and this year's Valley Women's Leadership Awards are proof of that," said Vera Quinn, President and CEO of Cydcor. "Kelli, Sam, Christine and Sheba each show what that looks like across our business, and it means a lot to see that kind of leadership recognized among so many women making an impact."

Kelli MacIver has spent her career at Cydcor progressing through a series of leadership roles on her way to becoming Chief of Staff. Her approach to mentorship reflects a belief that runs through Cydcor's culture: the business only succeeds when its people do, and helping others grow is part of the job, not separate from it.

"Kelli's strength is developing people - seeing where they can grow and helping them get there. That is exactly what good mentorship looks like," Quinn said. "Kelli, Sam, Christine and Sheba each show the many ways women drive impact at Cydcor, and we're honored by this recognition and what it says about the caliber of our team."
