Spring is here, and I’m going to share my spring calendar with you. Not because it’s particularly interesting or that you should care what I’m up to, but because I hope it may serve as a template for you as you plan your team’s involvement in spring HARDI activities (and, if you’re like me, you like to book all your travel at once when sales are on to get the most bang for the buck).
First up is the trip to Tempe, Arizona, for HARDI’s new Supply Chain Focus Conference. March 26-28 is right around the corner, but it's not too late to register for if you’re interested in warm, sunny weather and engaging with 10 knowledgeable experts on the subject. For those curious, the Supply Chain Focus conference is a combination of the previous Operations & Logistics and Purchasing conferences. My VP who focuses on operational excellence will be there, too. This is probably the easiest conference to verify an ROI of over 100 percent as it only takes one or two ideas to recover the cost of the session and travel very quickly.
