Surveyor Says! The NSPS Podcast
Business:Non-Profit
“Surveyor Says!” The NSPS Podcast goes to the library! This week, we feature Ron Nelms, PLS, who recently published a wonderful book “Putting Big Sticks by Little Sticks” that reflects the journey that his surveying career has taken. Ron recently talked with our two hosts, Curt Sumner and Tim Burch, on what inspired him to write about his career and how many life lessons are learned along the way. He explained that the surveying profession has provided him with my experiences and challenges that taught him more about life than just working as a surveyor. Ron also shared his personal challenge of putting his experiences into a written form and how it allowed him to reflect even more on a “storied” career.
The book is currently available on BookBaby.com (the publisher of the book), Amazon, and Barnes & Noble.
