The NCLTL 86th Annual Conference
was held in June at the Hilton Kingston Plantation in Myrtle Beach, SC. These are some highlights of the Conference:
Bert Bennett was presented with the 2017 Bill H. Teague Lifetime Achievement Award. Ellis Brotherton was honored to be the person that presented this Award to Bert. This award is very special and the list of past recipients have a lot in common. They each have dedicated their lives to serving our industry, our country, their families and their communities. Bert received a well-deserved standing ovation from the 167 attendees. Information on all recipients of this award is here on the website.
Our Keynote Speaker, Jim Newsome, CEO of South Carolina Ports Authority, gave a great presentation. His topic was "Container Shipping and Ports Update-2017". Jim discussed the size of vessels that are now coming into the port's and how important it is to have the proper equipment in place to handle the larger vessels. Also, planning for the future needs of the ports, to meet the needs of the transportation industry is always a challenge.
Guest Speaker, Thom Albrecht, President of Sword & Sea Transport Advisors as always provides League attendees the latest information on what's going on within the Transportation industry. He is one of the best and it is great to have him as one of our Guest Speakers each year. Thom's presentation this year was "Are Happy Days Here Again?" Click here to see Thom's presentation. After the presentation downloads, press "F5."
Kate Vitasek, Faculty Graduate Executive Education University of Tennessee, has a book titled Getting to We and that was her presentation title as well. Kate discussed a five-step process that will make establishing highly collaborative relationships in the 3PL arena, or buyer/supplier business relationship a reality. It was a great presentation that changes the goal of the negotiation from simply getting a contract signed to forging a lasting win/win partnership.
Sixteen Teams played in the Golf Outing and everyone had a great time! Unfortunately, nobody won the $10,000 Hole but maybe next year. The Dye Golf Course at Barefoot Landing was in great shape and everyone had a great time.
Thursday night's reception was great as it allows everyone some time to network, visit old friends, view vendor displays, listen to some good music and get ready for the Conference.
On Saturday morning, Ricky Proehl who played for two winning NFL Super Bowl Teams (St Louis Rams and the Indianapolis Colts) was interviewed by Buddy Holson, new ESPN Analyst. Ricky was great at explaining to the attendees his life journey as a NFL football star and had some great stories on Payton Manning and Steve Smith. One of the main topics he discussed was his love for his Sons Austin and Blake (Austin plays football for the North Carolina Tar Heels and Blake will be playing football for the East Carolina Pirates) We had 90 people in attendance and a lot of great questions from the attendees. ESPN did a feature story on Ricky this past Sunday on Father’s Day about his relationship with his Sons.
The NCLTL Board of Governors' goal for the 86th Annual Conference was to create an atmosphere that allowed everyone an opportunity to network and to provide Speakers that would educate and inspire our attendees, at a location that is great for families. We wanted a Conference that would benefit everyone that attended. I think we accomplished all the above.
A special thanks to all the Sponsors that helped make this Conference a Great Success! |
