Welcome to the Dairy Calf and Heifer Association!
The Dairy Calf and Heifer Association (DCHA) is a non-profit member organization. Our mission is to enhance the success of the dairy industry by providing insights and opportunities to improve dairy calf and heifer production. Together, we are committed to growing our future.
On this episode, Peggy sits down with Clint Al-Ag, president of the Dairy Calf and Heifer Association (DCHA) Board of Directors, and manager with Blue Sky Farms.
Clint gives a sneak-peak of what to expect at the upcoming DCHA Conference, as well as how the organization has helped him develop leadership skills as he has transitioned from heifer yard manager to now overseeing 150 employees across three sites in the Texas panhandle.
Clint covers three key steps he has taken to set up middle managers for success, including:
- How he assesses not just core competencies but alignment with core values and desire to be a leader
- Reinforcing the chain of command
- Ongoing support for new managers
Join Clint and other producers and industry professionals who specialize in raising dairy calves, heifers and cross calves at the 2024 DCHA Annual Meeting.
