Listen "From One Dream Job to the Next — Worthington on Serving Customers, Building Demand "
Episode Synopsis
When Josh Worthington was driving up and down the highway, working with Angus breeders across the state, he couldn’t imagine a better job than executive director of the Missouri Angus Association. But then he and his wife, Corry, started raising their family, and he knew he needed a job that kept him at home more often. Worthington Angus was born and quickly grew to include two production sales a year. Today, he’s focused on helping his customers market their calves, whether that’s by providing genetics that will be in demand by the ultimate consumer or by offering an outlet for bred females. This conversation covers everything from Josh’s journey to the Angus breed and mentors along the way to how he defines balance in his breeding program and who does chores on Christmas.
