Heather Wildman loves helping people and businesses understand how they can get the most out of themselves. Using her own experiences working in different agribusinesses, she knows the importance of management style to build motivated and positive teams, and what happens when bad behaviour and poor attitudes are tolerated within a team.

Another facet of Heather's work is helping businesses and farming families with their succession planning, ensuring that businesses can continue to run smoothly once key people retire, move to another job or have died.

In this episode, we discuss:

facing up to the implications of Heather's recent accident, when she broke her back in two places,

how a desire to be more effective at knowledge transfer turned into a fascinating Nuffield scholarship project,

possible reasons for not discussing what happens after death within families, but the benefits of being honest and sharing what could happen to the farm and business in the future.

Listen in to hear Heather's thoughts on communication, cows and coffee!
