About this Event
People are central to agribusiness performance, but how can businesses build a workforce that supports productivity, manages risk and keeps supply chains moving?
Join Agribusiness Australia, proudly hosted by NAB, for a practical discussion exploring the workforce and labour challenges businesses need to consider as they prepare for 2027.
Bringing together industry perspectives and business experiences, the event will examine the greatest risks to attracting and retaining staff, the impact of workforce pressures across supply chains, and opportunities to strengthen productivity and business resilience.
The conversation will explore:
- Identifying workforce risks: What are the greatest people and labour challenges facing agribusiness, and where are businesses most exposed?
- Retaining staff and critical knowledge: What drives people to leave, and how can businesses reduce turnover, develop leaders and retain essential skills?
- Connecting workforce and productivity: How do skills gaps, staff turnover and workforce planning affect business performance, and where can training, technology and better ways of working make a difference?
- Understanding supply chain pressures: What workforce challenges are businesses seeing across production, processing, transport and distribution, and how do these affect capacity, reliability and delivery?
- Preparing for what’s next: What should businesses prioritise now to strengthen their teams, address emerging risks and support growth in 2027?
Hear how industry peers are approaching these issues, contribute to the discussion and take away ideas to inform your own workforce and business planning.
Your ticket includes drinks, nibbles and the opportunity to connect with fellow agribusiness leaders and industry professionals.
Speakers to be announced in the coming weeks!
