This is our second story in the series and its all about the very first project in dairy industry and we have never looked back.

Two months after starting out in business, I saw an advertisement in the Brisbane newspaper, The Courier Mail.  It was for a Project Coordinator for a dairy industry project.  It was a large feature ad for someone qualified and experienced in project management with experience in the agricultural sector.  Self doubt crept in.  I didn't think I'd get a look in as my experience was in large scale education not agricultural projects. I gave myself a talking to and decided to give it a go!  I hoped being raised on a dairy farm and being involved in a family farming business might count for something.

We are pleased to be facilitating the Australian Grain Leaders Program in 2018.  10th Anniversary.  This year will mark over 100 graduates.  These amazing leaders are creating positive change in the grains industry.  Eleven participants are joining the program in 2018 with a soft launch in January and a formal launch in Canberra in February.   The program is hosted by Grain Growers Limited. This year participants are being selected from right across the Australian grain supply chain.  This diverse group of emerging leaders will engage in 3 Face to Face leadership learning events and 2 Field Trips in Tasmania and New South Wales.  A highlight of this program is where each participant identifies and develops their own leadership project with key outcomes for;

1. Themselves, 2. Their Enterprise and 3. The Australian grains industry.
