Stephen Guth Presenting in Ocala, Florida on June 5th

Posted by Stephen Guth at 6/4/2008 8:44 PM and is filed under Rantings

In Ocala, I'll be presenting the first formal roll-out of the Procurement Maturity Model to a group of fellow procurement pros that work in Florida (the Florida Conference of Cooperative Supply Management Professionals). Some of my blog readers may know that I'm a Florida native, so I'm pleased to say that Florida is where I'm rolling the Procurement Maturity Model out. While I love Washington, DC, it's nice to be back here in Florida, particularly in horse country! I drove the back way from Orlando International to Ocala where the conference is taking place, and I really enjoyed the sights, particularly the oaks dripping with moss, the orange groves, the palmettos, and the palms. If you look for it, the "old" Florida of Marjorie Rawlings and Marjory Stoneman Douglas is still there and is very beautiful.
