It’s annual meeting time for CHS, Inc. The theme is “Yes and No.” I guess they’ll only be asking pretty simple questions during the meeting this year. The meeting will be held December 1 – 2. Here’s some agenda information:
Thursday, Dec. 1: Early arrival workshops include Country Hedging, Inc.’s market outlook for grain, oilseeds and energy for 2005, at 8:45 a.m. and 10 a.m.; and Jim Whitt’s “Why the chicken really crossed the road: The motive in motivation” at 10 a.m. Mini-sessions will take place each half-hour between 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. and touch on everything from selling Cenex® lubricants and producer financing to adjuvants and managing grain exports.
The business meeting starts at 12:30 p.m. with reports from the board of directors, operations leaders and CHS President and Chief Executive Officer John Johnson. It closes with the Member Interaction Session.
Friday, Dec. 2: The business meeting begins at 10 a.m., and closes with keynote speaker Howard Putnam, former CEO of Southwest Airlines, with “The ultimate challenge in ethics: Are you really the person your dog thinks you are?”
