Free School for Farmworkers Presents: Delegation Skills on the Farm

Free School for Farmworkers: Am I Conducting a Symphony or Farming? Delegation Skills on the Farm Farming is often compared to a marathon, but what about a symphony? Hear us out - farm managers are pretty similar to symphony conductors in a lot of ways. A symphony conductor decides which set of songs is being played and in what order. They need to make sure all musicians know their roles and cues for starting and stopping, who is taking the lead, and who is supporting. When everyone is clear and the team is strong, it’s music to our ears, and when there is miscommunication or the flow is off, yikes. The same goes for farming. The setlist is the task list, and the orchestra is the farm crew. Delegating a farm crew, like conducting a symphony, requires specific skills like foresight, communication, and observance. You facilitate the work and ensure that it happens harmoniously. Delegating as a manager is crucial for any farm’s success, not to mention crew satisfaction. It can feel really good to get through… Cost: FREE. Registration Required: Yes. Event Type: Free Events. Virtual/Online. County: Adams. Ashland. Barron. Bayfield. Brown. Buffalo. Burnett. Calumet.
