Uplevel Dairy: Dairy Calf and Heifer Association Annual Meeting with Clint Al-Ag

Peggy sits down with Clint Al-Ag, president of the Dairy Calf and Heifer Association (DCHA) Board of Directors, and manager with Blue Sky Farms. Clint gives a sneak-peak of what to expect at the upcoming DCHA Conference, as well as how the organization has helped him develop leadership skills as he has transitioned from heifer yard manager to now overseeing 150 employees across three sites in the Texas panhandle.

Clint covers three key steps he has taken to set up middle managers for success, including how he assesses not just core competencies but alignment with core values and desire to be a leader, reinforcing the chain of command and ongoing support for new managers.

Join Clint and other producers and industry professionals who specialize in raising dairy calves, heifers and cross calves at the 2024 DCHA Annual Meeting:
