Leadership webinar series
As a part of our Leadership initiative, we are running a series of free webinars for veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses to address the challenges of leading and working with colleagues and clients through the coronavirus pandemic.
The hour-long sessions are a collaboration with the Tavistock Institute, a not-for-profit organisation that applies social science methodologies to contemporary issues and problems, and will be led by experts in the field of organisational development and change. Each session will provide members with an opportunity to think about the wide-ranging effects the pandemic has had on our lives and our workplaces. In particular, the sessions will address themes such as the impact of being furloughed; returning to work and living one’s life in conditions of ongoing uncertainty; and working through change.
There are four webinars in the series tackling a specific theme each week, each of which builds upon the last, listeners will be provided with advice, guidance and coaching to enable them to grow their understanding and confidence so that they feel better placed to negotiate, lead, or support others, during these uncertain times.
The themes covered by the webinars are described below. Whilst valuable as standalone sessions, each webinar in the series is designed as a counterpart to the others so that members can achieve a deeper and richer appreciation and understanding of the issues. The sessions will also be recorded and made available after each webinar has taken place.
The free lunchtime sessions will take place weekly, starting on Thursday 2 July, at 1pm.
