Lead your farm business into the future by growing your leadership skills with the Durham Agriculture Leadership Program. Starting in January 2025 and running once monthly until April, take part in this engaging four-part series.
Each session will address important topics in agriculture leadership and will feature industry-leading speakers and networking opportunities.

Module one (January 28): Agricultural challenges and opportunities from a global perspective. This session will look at global business economics, Canada’s role in global agriculture and what it means for Durham Region farmers.

Module two (February 25): Effective communication in business and beyond. This session will provide tools for talking about difficult issues and how to effectively communicate and work with different personalities.
-
Module three (March 25): Leading a resilient agri-business. This session is where business and leadership intersect. Discussions will focus on examples and tools for making good business decisions.

Module four (April 8): How to be a voice for agriculture. This session will inspire and teach participants how to tell their story to non-farming audiences, and how to communicate with decision makers.
Lunch will be provided at each of the afternoon sessions. A separate evening session will also be offered on February 25 entitled “Finding fairness in family transition.” This program is specifically designed for farmers and farm families.
