Business Profile: Today’s Management Consultants HOUSTON- African-American News&Issues presents: Mrs. Shirley Thomas of Today’s Management Consultants. Today’s Management Consultants is a full-service handyman company. Today’s Management Consultants subscribes to a motto, “Better men’s, Better husbands, Better dad’s”. With over a decade of experience in the industry, TMC is an accredited member with the Better Business Bureau, and with an A+ approval rating. TMC is the 1st stop and the only stop handyman company any home or business owner requiring repairs will need. It is not just another repair company that has popped up out of the blue. It was established because Mrs. Shirley Thomas saw a great need that existed in the African-American community; primarily targeting men who were unemployed. Today’s Management Consultants came to life out of the realization that when men are employed: crime decreases, they have a greater sense of pride; which in return makes for a better and safer community. At TMC, there is a belief that the men are the backbone of the country and community. In the origination of TMC, Mrs. Thomas posed a question, asking God one day, what she could do for others, not just making money so that she could live well, while so many others suffered. There was a light bulb revelation that went off in her head and prompted her to start a home repair business. After baffling with the decision, she just couldn’t believe that becoming a business owner was what God wanted from her. She thought to herself, that she is a woman and a small one at that. So finally after weeks of going back and forth in her head, the home repair business was the vision that kept coming back to her. Ultimately, she surrendered and remembers that it was scary for her. She realized that she would be responsible for a load that she wasn’t sure if she would be able to carry it. After taking a look around the vicinity of where she had lived for over 16 years, she realized that it had been staring her in the face all the time. Today’s Management Consultants is a company that is few in number. TMC brings on board those who have a criminal background, with hopes for rehabilitation. It is sad that there are husbands, fathers and single men that are willing to work, but because of their background no one will hire them. Although, their debt to society has been honored, some are still unable to vote, work or become acceptable by society’s standards. If there is no honest work available for these individuals they are labeled as menaces to society. Nevertheless, this criminal brand and element is forever hanging over their heads, like the dropping of birds. If a human being can be institutionalized at the tax payers expense for approximately $40,000 a year, wouldn’t it be better for the country if they were to have gainful employment, rather than being a burden to society? This is why Today’s Management Consultants needs your support! There has been plenty of road blocks from other handyman company owners in the establishment of Today’s Management Consultants. For one, being a female in a male dominated industry has caused Mrs. Shirley Thomas a grave misconception. However, she has been determined to find work for those who want to work and she believes that God will take care of the rest. Along with TMC’s resume includes partnerships with: the City of Houston, Sheltering Arms for Senior Services, United Way and countless other homes and businesses throughout the greater Houston and surrounding areas.
