Young Leader Program Vision
"To cultivate a group of passionate and unified young leaders who are:
knowledgeable and well-trained about Holstein Canada and enthusiastic
advocates and ambassadors for the dairy industry; so they remain
profitable members committed to breed advancement and industry
sustainability.”
The Young Leader program is based on the following 5 pillars:
Programs under each of the 5 pillars will provide our Canadian dairy young
leaders with both personal and professional development as well as aid in
the understanding of programs and services available to assist in helping
make their dairy herds more profitable. The Young adult program will
facilitate an understanding of the workings of Holstein Canada.
Supporting and fostering the next generation is an important focus at
Holstein Canada. We believe that supporting young leaders aged 19-30 will
help to foster a generation of dairy leaders who will lead our industry in
the future.
Holstein Canada is committed to developing opportunities to assist, educate,
and involve young adults in their Holstein related interests. The youth of
today are the members, customers and leaders of tomorrow. The goal is to
encourage and support young Holstein enthusiasts to become active proponents
of the Holstein breed.
The Young Leader Advisory Committee Members:
The Young Leader Advisory Committee (YLAC) has representation from four
Canadian regions: Atlantic Provinces, Quebec, Ontario, and the Western
provinces. Committee members work with Holstein Canada staff to develop a
program to meet aspirations of young adults across Canada.
