We discuss Alina’s journey to the US and her amazing career growth. We learn about details of her immigration experience (Why the US, Hurdles, myths, what she overcame and advice along with her current role at the Hanor Group.) We learn from Alina what opportunities she see’s in the Pork Production business, three vital points that make a successful production manager, along with the impact of PRRS and PED on her personally. We learn about Product impact or multicultural employee management and How can we unite as an industry together to flourish in the Pork Production food chain while also not vertically integrating as we take away small family farms and entrepreneurship?
