AMERICAN ANGUS ASSOCIATION - THE BUSINESS BREED

Leadership conferences

The Angus Foundation provides support for the NJAA’s Raising the Bar and Leaders Engaged in Angus Development (LEAD) conferences through the Angus Fund. These annual events provide opportunities for juniors to learn, network and develop as future industry leaders.

Leaders Engaged in Angus Development

The LEAD conference travels to a new state each year, exposing NJAA members to different sectors of the agriculture industry. While exploring the region, youth gain perspective on unique agricultural practices, explore potential career opportunities and enhance their leadership skills through activities and speakers.

Raising the Bar

At the Raising the Bar conference, NJAA members visit a university with a strong agriculture program to gain insight on the institution, helping prepare them to determine their future plans. Attendees also network with peers from around the country, participate in personal development workshops and visit industry-relevant attractions in the area.
