I recently attended a CEO luncheon with some of my industry peers. We do this once a month as a way to catch up and to keep one another informed on what our organizations are working on. Since I got there a few minutes early, I decided to use my spare time to update my […]
You may think I’m jumping the gun, but I’m not. As we all know, time flies during the busy season. Before you know it, October will be here and the Green Industry Conference (GIC), to be held October 27–30, would only be a few short weeks and away. For most PLANET members, attending GIC is […]

There’s an old saying that industry veterans understand so well: For any company to reach its full potential, an owner has to switch gears — to stop working in the business and start working on it. This saying also holds true for PLANET. Since the merger, PLANET staff and volunteers have worked tirelessly in the […]

Basically, we woke up early got into our PLANET shirts, had some coffee and raced to the EXPO center of Lullvull. Today we had to set up the seminars, and prepare for the tons of spectators. Funny that the staff is calm and collected yet all of us ambassadors are waking up and eventually bursting […]
Today (wednesday) was registration day and boy, did we have a long day!!! The other ambassadors and I worked the registration table, introduced guest speakers, and made sure the conference runs smoothly. BUT, we stood all day and really learned on the fly and completely held things together. Zane Castle is ‘Mom’ while we are […]
