"Encouraging others to play like champions - Home, work and elsewhere"

We are proud to have Mark McIntosh as this year's Keynote speaker. Known as the “Comeback Coach” Mark McIntosh entertains and inspires audiences of all kinds with keynote presentations, books and workshops encouraging others to “run to daylight” despite life’s challenges.

Why chose “Moving the Widget” as this year’s theme?

“As professionals in the Logistics/Transportation industry, we are often asked what type of product we manage and move and the simplest yet most helpful explanation is the “Widget.” The term has been around 100 years in our industry, but recently (in the internet era) it is becoming more popular to describe a small application for computer software. We thought this would be a fun way to reclaim the word as it pertains to Supply Chain, Logistics and Transportation. Officially, Merrian-Webster defines the word Widget as: “1. Gadget, 2. An unnamed article considered for purposes of hypothetical example.” Operation Stimulus is the perfect vehicle to reclaim our prized possession before the internet moguls take it from us!”
