What a Great week in Nashville at the #EDGE2024 CSCMP - Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals
What an incredible week at CSCMP - Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals #EDGE2024 in Nashville! 🌟 The event kicked off with Morris Morrison, Professional Keynote Speaker reminding us of the power of self-disruption and personal accountability. His message—don’t be a victim, take ownership of your life, and pursue your objectives—was inspiring and set the tone for the week ahead. A highlight was hearing from an exceptional group of women leaders in Supply Chain (Cynthia Cochovity, Heather Dohrn, Jennifer Kobus, Darcy MacClaren, Ammie McAsey (Rabicke) and Michelle Williams) who shared their personal journeys, emphasizing the importance of finding and empowering the next generation of leaders. Their stories were a testament to the strength and impact of women in our field and beyond. We also heard from Fawn Weaver, who left us with an unforgettable story of Nathan “Nearest” Green—the first known African-American master distiller and the teacher of Jack Daniel. Her message of truth and legacy was deeply inspiring. Tuesday brought more valuable insights. Roberto, Isaías Zanatta from Mattel, Inc. delivered key lessons on leading change—business is our boss, never delegate complexity, and take care of people. I had the honor of sharing the stage with Robb Porter and Stella Carneiro, MRes Carneiro from Loadsmart to discuss Freight Market Uncertainty and how Data, People, Process, and Technology can help organizations navigate risks and thrive. We wrapped up with Shelley Simpson from J.B. Hunt Transport Services, Inc., who shared her remarkable journey from an entry-level position to President. Her story of mentorship, excellence, and customer value delivery resonated deeply with everyone. This week has been a whirlwind of learning, networking, and visiting vendors offering top-notch solutions in Analytics, Automation, and Transportation. I leave Nashville energized and excited about the future of Supply Chain! #CSCMP #SupplyChain #Leadership #Networking #DataAnalytics #WomenInSupplyChain
