# 38 - Learning from Big Business

In this podcast, we explore the way in which strategy, change, leadership transition, people management and business transformations are achieved at the top end of town, and within some of Australia’s largest, most iconic agribusiness brands.

In a compelling interview with Jonathan Hutchings, ex-management consultant and now private equity and business transformation specialist, Jeremy explores how fundamental change is made at the ‘top-end’ of our food & fibre sector, and in businesses including Peters Ice-cream, Ingham’s Chicken, and Allied Pinnacle.

Grab a coffee, tune in and learn:

• How major change is achieved in big business,
• The simplicity of strategy-setting and making the very complex simple,
• How to be objective in analysing the true performance of your business,
• The importance of getting the very best team around you,
• The importance of retaining your humanity whilst navigating through big change initiatives,
• A perspective on emerging trends in the food & fibre sector and how they may impact / provide opportunities for farming businesses.

If it’s good enough for the elite leaders in our sector, perhaps there is a lot we can learn and apply in our own family businesses.

Enjoy!

Kind Regards,
