Synopsis
Many veterinary practices overlook the power of structured succession planning. Without clear pathways for development in even the smallest veterinary businesses, team members can feel uncertain about their future and disengage from the organisation. In this session, Craig will firstly explore how to take a fresh look at your practice structure to map out career progression routes for all roles – veterinary, nursing, and support teams. Adrian will then share how working with a professional coach can help turbo charge your team – both in the one-to-one and group coaching style. Coaching is not training; it’s a much more diverse and powerful tool tailored to your team’s individual learning needs. He’ll also look at the positive financial impact of personal development and leadership coaching.
