The level of farm business acumen has really lifted in Australia and there is a lot more business planning and strategy happening. A lot of this is in training sessions, where there is supervision and peer learning amongst farmers. But what happens back on farm when there is so much work to do?

One of the secrets of success for businesses that want to ‘do better’ is to have access to advocates for your business. For some, this is about having an advisor, for others it is creating an Advisory Board that suits what you are trying to achieve.

My extensive experience and background in working within all facets of the dairy business, from direct relationships with dairy farmers through to board level involvement has given me a unique insight to the benefits I can bring to your business.

I can work with the way you prefer to work now and fit what I can do into focussed sessions on your business, or can help you create something new that suits the way you want to work. This is not a cookie cutter approach; it’s about adding value to you and your business.

Getting this right is very important when you are trying to make things work with multi-generations of a family, when you are trying to grow and change your business, and even when you are thinking of selling/retiring from your business.

You will have plenty of thoughts of what you will want, and I have experience in getting this right for you, help you identify the best approach, access my extensive networks to form the right support structure, and importantly, contribute through a range of roles that benefit your business.
