Certified HALO Leader – Agriculture©

For busy, on-farm leaders who need to lead under pressure, not write about it.
Leadership on the land is different.
There’s no pause button. No time for fluff. No room for theory that doesn’t work.
When things go sideways, you lead through it.
CHL–AG is built for that reality.
It gives you the tools, clarity, and confidence to lead in real time, on the ground, with your people, where it counts.
Who It’s For
- On-farm leaders, 2ICs, and team supervisors
- Farmers stepping into leadership roles
- Rural professionals who manage people and decisions
- Agri-businesses wanting leadership consistency across operations
What's included
CHL–AG is structured around farming’s natural rhythm with one short, sharp workshop per month so you stay on top of leadership without falling behind on the work.
Each 3-hour session includes:
- One high-performance leadership tool you can apply that day
- Group-based conversations grounded in real on-farm experience
- Practical challenges to lead better that week
No jargon. No assignments. No wasted time.
Just leadership tools that work under pressure, with your team, in the thick of it.

- Clear tools for fast, confident decision-making

Why CHL–AG stands apart
Most leadership programs weren’t built for farming. This one is.
It’s practical, pressure-tested, and stripped of anything that wastes your time.
No fluff. No lectures. No long-winded theory.
Just straight-up leadership execution that works where you do.
CHL–AG is about leading better under pressure, in real time, on the ground.
