We need to talk:
Successful communication skills give you the ability to positively affect every interaction in your day - personally & professionally. In veterinary practice, your communication determines the information on which to base patient care & is often the reason why clients & employees are happy or unhappy with the practice. Four core communication skills will be reviewed & applied to scenarios commonly encountered in practice for every position on the team.


Why don't we see eye to eye? This entertaining, interactive session highlights the various ways we perceive & interpret differently from each other & why "eveyrone does not think just like me." This diversity within your team can have its challenges however, diversity is a powerful driver of innovation, best practices & progressive teams if the differences are acknowledged & appreciated.


Bark! Meow! Conflict & challenging or uncomfortable conversations arise in every business - with clients & with colleagues. While there is not a single solution to all situations, we will discuss basic communication skills to work through emotional conversations, financial discussions & the compassionate delivery of difficult news. 


You are the client! In this session, we will look at commonly encountered communication scenarios from a client's perspective. Every team member contributes to the client's experience & we will examine the communication opportunities at every point of contact as we move through a hospital visit as a client.


This seminar will be recorded & available for streaming at a later date.
