Is There More Than Gobble, Gobble?

Of course there is.  And this is the time at which we usually wax eloquent, mundane, or, worst, maudlin about all nthe standard things for whih to be thankful.  Not that we should not treasure family, friends, health, prosperity, and the rest. But, having acknowledged the standards, it might be appropriate to recognize an everyday things.

So, today - and on all the days - let us give thanks for this wonderful supply chain management profession that we have chosen  - or which has chosen us.  I suppose that there are many other rewarding fields of endeavor - to each his or her own.

But our universe is one of challenge, change, advancing technology, breakthrough concepts, and unequalled collaboration with peers.  At the end of the day, at the end of the quarter, at the end of a career, we have made a difference.  How much of a difference?  That is a matter of choice and commitment.  But the opportunity to select among options ranging from doing a job to transforming an enterprise is there for the taking.

So, thinking about it today, consider how fortunate we are to be in places in which we can give back, give forward, and give opportunities to others.
