TODAY FEB 16 IS YOUR LAST CHANCE TO REGISTER FOR THIS WORKSHOP - you are not going to want to miss this one! Whether responding to a bad review online, confronting misconceptions from Dr. Google, or de-escalating a frustrated client interaction, veterinarians need to be creative and adaptable to a variety of situations. This workshop will focus on group activities that will help participants creatively (and with a bit of humor) address common issues felt in practice. This approach will allow us to build empathy for other stakeholders in the veterinary practice relationship, generate new creative approaches to dealing with these challenges, and work on methods to break down barriers in teams that can paralyze progress. Get comfortable with another way to approach the dreaded “role playing” so you can confidently lead your team on creatively and interactively brainstorming what to say and how to say it in those uncomfortable or uncommon situations!
