Gardiner Dairy Foundation introduced newly appointed chair Dr Len Stephens at the ‘2020 year in review and a look forward’ at which we also farewelled outgoing chair, Dr Bruce Kefford.
A discussion followed with leaders making changes for the better in dairy businesses and dairy communities. The panel comprised of two people who have undertaken formal leadership training under Gardiner sponsored programs, and a leadership development facilitator and young dairy farmer who has not yet undertaken formal leadership training, but is building leadership skills and knowledge in her workplace. The panel were extremely honest and open with sharing their experiences with leadership development.
