#100: The Angus Family Playbook: How to Build a Business, Raise Leaders & Think Generationally with Josie Angus - Angus Pastoral Co

What happens when a family doesn’t just talk about legacy — but builds it, lives it, and scales it?

In this powerful episode, Ben Law sits down with Josie Angus of Angus Pastoral Company and Signature Beef — one of the most respected names in Australian beef. Together, they unpack the rarely-heard behind-the-scenes strategy that turned a fourth-generation grazing family into a vertically integrated powerhouse that spans 162,000 hectares, 35,000 head of cattle, a $37M abattoir, and four adult children aligned and thriving in the business.

But this isn’t just about scale. It’s about mindset.

You’ll hear how:

• Josie and Blair got all four of their kids to step into meaningful leadership roles — without entitlement or drama.
• Their family board meetings evolved from casual chats to structured strategy with outside facilitation.
• They built a business model that’s agile, sustainable, and independent of broken systems — even when banks and industry insiders told them they were crazy.
• Exposure, not entitlement, became the secret to raising entrepreneurial kids with courage, character and capability.

If you’re serious about future-proofing your family business — this is not just a conversation, it’s a roadmap.
