High Performance Vets was created to help Veterinarians accelerate their career success and increase their wellbeing
There are five main focus areas:
- Your Wellbeing – Are you flourishing in your life and career or are you languishing?
Invest in your personal & mental fitness to maintain energy and enthusiasm in your life and career. The latest developments in neuroscience and positive psychology are incorporated into the trainings. - Stress Reduction & Management – Are you aware of your stressors in practice and how you react to them? Do you come home exhausted and can’t stop thinking about cases? Are you starting to dread going into work?
The veterinary profession can be mentally, physically and emotionally taxing. To avoid compassion fatigue, burnout and disillusionment, you must become self aware to determine what are your external and internal triggers for stress and how to change and manage these.
Natasha incorporates coaching principles and emotional intelligence coaching to increase your self awareness and change your mindset to increase your resilience and manage your stress. - Your Career – Do you have a strategic plan for your career based on your strengths, skills and passions?
Are you aware of your competencies and skill in the four areas which are separate to your clinical and surgical skills? These four areas complement your professional skills and will accelerate your career success. - Your Income – Do you know what determines your income and are you comfortable in salary negotiations?
Employers are looking for veterinarians who have the professional skills to become asset to their practice. They also want veterinarians who have good client communication skills and are comfortable discussing fees.
In this highly competitive market, learn the skills that will ensure you are considered an asset to your practice, how to discuss costs with clients and learn to negotiate your income. - Clients – Did you know that clients will judge your professional ability by how you interact and communicate with them? If they don’t like or trust you, they will have a negative perception of you, even if your are a very talented veterinarian.
Understanding clients and the ability to communicate and relate to them is a crucial skill that will determine your career success. There are many talented veterinarians who can’t effectively communicate with clients and their career has suffered. Communication is a skill that can be learned and developed.
