Chief executive Jules Benton said the interactive workshops understand how valuable it is for dairy farmers, their teams and their communities to flourish in a positive, supportive environment.
“Having great workplaces and talented people is fundamental to the success of any business so these workshops will focus on understanding why a culture of wellbeing is important, getting familiar with your own values and what really motivates you, understanding the wellbeing bank account model and being aware of how to optimise team performance.”
The events, funded by DairyNZ, are free to participants. The first is in Kaipara at the Dargaville Town Hall tomorrow.
Other workshops are being held throughout March, starting in Greymouth before moving on to Huntly, Putaruru, Taupo, Winton, Oamaru, Levin, Waipara and finishing in Hinds, Mid Canterbury.
“We are proud to have had four network members contribute to the content development and now the delivery of the workshops,” Benton said.
“It’s so vital that we do what we can to assist dairy farming businesses to adopt good workplace and people management practices that help them build leadership and capability.”
