Women involved in farm business have an extraordinary set of skills – from organizing workflows in complex, ever-changing environments and managing diverse teams to budgeting, cost control and financial forecasting.
The success of many farms strongly depends on the women who are doing the books, coordinating farm administration and contributing to strategic management decisions.
In fact, farm business women have many of the skills and capabilities needed in wider leadership roles in industry and the community.
A new project coordinated by Queensland Farmers Federation (QFF) and Growcom aims to tap into the talents and capabilities of farming women – and encourage them to strengthen their confidence as business leaders and bring their skills, ideas and passion to other places.
