Recorded live at the Next‑Gen Ag Forum 2025, held at the Quayside Terminal in Townsville.

Mark Westcott delivered a powerful and thought-provoking session on succession planning — not just as a business handover, but as a deeply personal and strategic process that shapes the future of families, farms, and communities.

Drawing on years of experience in agribusiness, leadership, and mentoring, Mark explored how successful succession is built on open communication, clear expectations, and a shared vision between generations. He challenged attendees to approach succession not as a transaction, but as a journey that safeguards both relationships and the legacy of the land.
