Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

GRDC in Conversation: Alex Conway
Q: What advice would you give to young people entering agriculture today?
Always give 110 percent, throw yourself into as many opportunities as you can, and understand that you won't know everything at first; this openness to learning drives discovery of your niche and accelerates career growth.
GRDC in Conversation: Alex Conway
Q: How did the GRDC opportunity start for you, and what did you learn from Phil Burrell?
I started assisting with GRDC projects after returning from Canada, gradually taking on more responsibility as Phil mentored me; GRDC recognized the need to build capacity in grain storage and I learned to balance hands-on field work with development activities, eventually leading on-farm workshops and grower support.
GRDC in Conversation: Alex Conway
Q: Talk me through that passion. What did you see in grain storage that captured you?
A combination of hands-on experiences, right from harvesting in different states, plus a Canada stint monitoring dryers and on-farm storage in challenging conditions, revealed a field where technology and practical grower needs intersect, sparking a long-lasting fascination with improving storage through monitoring and automation.
The moment leadership became real: TRAIL Emerging Leaders program
Q: What have you taken away and implemented since finishing the program?
The guests highlight a shift toward being more outspoken, maintaining accountability through journaling and action plans, and staying connected with the network to support ongoing growth and application of leadership principles in daily work.
The moment leadership became real: TRAIL Emerging Leaders program
Q: Tell me a little bit about that program.
The program is intensive and broader than expected, bringing together professionals from various fields and not just grains. It focuses on how to exist as a young professional leader, emphasizing the development of soft skills, collaboration, and cross-disciplinary understanding, which reshaped how the guests view leadership in their careers.
