Video: Managing to be a good manager: strategies and practices - Anthony Vigilante

Managing a team depends on having the fundamental skill of leading and coordinating individuals with diverse abilities, personalities, and work styles in order to achieve common goals. Nowadays, that is especially sensitive in the swine industry, as we are going through a labor shortage. In this episode, I have a great conversation about strategies and practices to adapt management to changes and team growth with Anthony Vigilante, M.Sc., who has years of experience with team and manager development. He also emphasizes the importance of flexibility to managers and the need for adjustments to optimize individual and collective performance.
