SePRO has announced the hiring of John Wendorf, who has nearly 30 years of industry experience, as the director of its Turf & Ornamental team. 

 

“SePRO is passionate about our leadership role in the Turf & Ornamental industry.

In his role as director, Wendorf will focus on elevating SePRO’s pace of innovation, with a strong emphasis on technical efficacy, operational efficiencies, and social and environmental responsibility. While developing future-focused strategies for growth will be central to Wendorf’s role with SePRO, building a strong, thriving team will be of equal importance.

This is an opportunity to bring new and exciting technology to the industry with a team of outstanding professionals.”

“As an industry leader, SePRO is committed to recruiting highly respected thought leaders,” Hemmings added. “John certainly has experience and a proven track record in leading teams but it’s his ongoing dedication to the Turf & Ornamental industry that I find most exciting. His passion and expertise naturally align with the core values of SePRO and I look forward to his contributions.”

 

Wendorf earned his bachelor of science in horticulture from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and his master of business administration from Texas A&M University. He has been a member of the communications committee for RISE since 2017 and is also a current member of the FFA’s National Floriculture Committee.
