Dairy farmers can learn how to position their business for success and amplify the value they bring to their communities by completing a five-part leadership training series this winter. It's called 'Dairy's Visible Voice' and is being facilitated by the Professional Dairy Producers of Wisconsin.

The series, running simultaneously in two separate venues, kicks off at Pagels Ponderosa Dairy in Kewaunee on November 1 and Boon Farms near Greenwood on November 2. That program will focus on media training

Other sessions will be held December 13 on crisis management; January 3 on effective leadership; February 16 on proactive communication; and April 4 on social media strategy.

Registration for PDPW members is $625.00 and $800 for non-members. That includes five on-farm training sessions, training materials, lunch, refreshments and access to a like-minded, progressive dairy peer groups.
