PLANET’S EXECUTIVE FORUM RECEIVES HIGH MARKS

HERNDON, Va., March 3, 2009 —
The Professional Landcare Network’s (PLANET’s) recent Executive Forum at Walt Disney World® Resort in Florida received high marks from members in attendance. “An experience like no other,” says Matt Doerr, CLT, of Turf Appeal, Inc. “It’s the best experience of managing family vacation and industry education, and networking with friends from all over the country.” With today’s economic challenges, Rob Diaz, of Land Care, Inc., found the Forum to be especially valuable. “During a time when everyone is trying to get more for their money, this conference is priceless.”

Focusing on balancing one’s life and personal wellness, this year’s event featured presentations by Murray Banks, a speaker and trainer for 24 years and a world champion athlete, who focused on lifestyle and how it can impact leadership and work performance; and Scott Smith, founder and chief motivating officer of the popular MotivationToMove.com, who engaged the crowd on how to reduce stress and live a fit, healthy balanced life. There was also an interactive workshop led by Bill Arman, an expert on human development and co-founder of the Harvest Group, dynamic breakfast roundtable discussions, plus powerful networking opportunities with fellow green industry business owners and managers from around the country, not to mention ample time to enjoy the fabulous resort amenities.

Executive Forum sponsors include JOHN DEERE at the Platinum level, Caterpillar Inc. at the Gold level, and Vermeer at the Silver level.
