Essential traits,
for effective
Challenges occur on a regular
basis for many farm and agribusi-
ness managers across the state;
however, effective managers uti-
lize their knowledge and skills to
alleviate or eliminate the effects
of these challenges. While top
managers possess several posi:
tive traits, good leadership and
record-keeping skills are vital to
their operations. Every day man-
agers are responsible for interact-
ing with employees, family mem-
bers, customers and suppliers. As
an effective manager, you should
understand that management
and leadership go hand in hand.
Instead of just "running" a farm or
agricultural business, good man-
agers must motivate their employ-
ees. In addition, managers should
not be afraid to delegate tasks as
needed. By valuing their input
and opinions, managers are more
likely to see employees perform at
their highest levels. Information is
everywhere for farm and agribusi-
ness managers. While the amount
of production, marketing and fi-
nancial information needed to run
a successful business can burden
even the best managers, effective
managers collect and sort through
what they need, what they don't
need and use what they have to
improve future decisions. Many
times the most useful information
comes from records generated
within your own business. There-
fore, be sure to keep track of inputs
used, outputs produced, costs in-
curred and revenues generated to
make informed decisions.
