Crafting Culture & a Lifetime of Learnings with Anthony Lee

In a past life, Anthony Lee has scrubbed dishes, flipped burgers, varnished boats, worked on ski fields and spent time as a postman... Now, Anthony is the CEO and Director at family business, Australian Country Choice (ACC), a beef, cattle and food processing company. Your host, Oli Le Lievre, first met Anthony when he was in the crowd for one of Anthony's speeches. Oli has been curious ever since and was finally able to sit down with Anthony to record this podcast when Humans of Agriculture was invited to attend ACC's annual staff event. The event is dedicated to bringing together the hundreds of people across the business for three days of connecting in teamwork and stockmanship. It's a fitting setting as Anthony talks about 'culture before capability' throughout this episode, and how he goes about crafting culture in his role as CEO. They also touch on: Growing up in the family business The evolution into the vertically integrated business it is today How he has built life skills through global travel  Business aims, culture and capability  Balancing his personal life  Building and leading a team Connecting with an urban audience
